Scott P. MULVANEY, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
No. 4D08-3296.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
Oct. 22, 2008.
Rehearing Denied Dec. 19, 2008.
Scott Mulvaney, Defuniak Springs, pro se.
No appearance required for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Affirmed. As found by the trial court, the postconviction motion is successive and untimely. Even if it were not, it fails to show Strickland prejudice as a matter of law. See Sanders v. State, 946 So.2d 953, 960 (Fla.2006) ("[A]s a matter of law, the possibility of a jury pardon cannot form the basis for a finding of prejudice under Strickland").
WARNER, FARMER and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
. Strickland v. Washington, 466 U.S. 668, 104 S.Ct. 2052, 80 L.Ed.2d 674 (1984).
