Head Matter:
Jonathan HIRDHANI, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 2D12-1023.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
Sept. 5, 2012.
Arturo R. Rios of Law Office of Arturo R. Rios, P.A., St. Petersburg, for Appellant.

Opinion:
CASANUEVA, Judge.
Jonathan Hirdhani appeals the summary denial of his motion for postconviction relief filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Crim inal Procedure 3.850. Mr. Hirdhani raised two grounds in his motion, but the post-conviction court correctly denied the motion as untimely.
As we did in Barrios-Cruz v. State, 63 So.3d 868 (Fla. 2d DCA 2011), we hold that Padilla v. Kentucky, — U.S. -, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), does not apply retroactively in postconviction proceedings, and we certify the following question of great public importance:
SHOULD THE RULING IN PADILLA V. KENTUCKY, — U.S.-, 130 S.Ct. 1473, 176 L.Ed.2d 284 (2010), BE APPLIED RETROACTIVELY IN POSTCONVICTION PROCEEDINGS?
Affirmed.
ALTENBERND and CRENSHAW, JJ., concur.
