Head Matter:
Michael INMAN, Petitioner, v. STATE of Florida, Respondent.
No. 1D05-2435.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
Jan. 31, 2006.
Michael Inman, pro se, petitioner.
Charlie Crist, Attorney General, and Elizabeth F. Duffy, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for respondent.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We find that the evidence supports petitioner's claim that he timely communicated his desire to appeal his judgment and sentence in Leon County case number 2004-CF-1265 to his trial attorney and that request was not honored. Accordingly, we grant the petition and afford Michael V. Inman a belated appeal. Upon issuance of mandate in this cause, a copy of the opinion will be provided to the clerk of the circuit court, who shall treat it as a notice of appeal. Fla. R.App. P. 9.141(c)(5)(D).
PETITION GRANTED.
BARFIELD, DAVIS and POLSTON, JJ., concur.
