Opinion:
Upon consideration of the Notice of Inability to Accept Representation of Person Under Sentence of Death, this Court expressly recognizes the Office of the Capital Collateral Representative as counsel for Gerald Eugene Stano.
The motion for stay of execution on the issue concerning the electric chair is treated as an extraordinary writ and consolidated as to that issue only with Jones v. Butterworth, Case No. 90,231, — So.2d - [1997 WL 269335] (Fla.1997). These consolidated cases are set for oral argument on Tuesday, May 6, 1997 at 9:00 a.m.
Petitioner shall have until 5:00 p.m. Monday, April 28, 1997, to file a brief on this issue, and respondent shall have until 12:00 noon on Friday, May 2,1997, to file any brief in response. No reply brief shall be filed.
The execution of Gerald Eugene Stano is stayed until May 30, 1997, and the Office of the Capital Collateral Representative is directed to file in the trial court any postcon-viction motions available to Stano by May 9, 1997. The trial court shall then hear any argument and enter orders with respect to any motions by 5:00 p.m. on May 16, 1997.
