FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL
                STATE OF FLORIDA
                  _____________________________

                          No. 1D21-1863
                  _____________________________

CHRISTOPHER J. HRANEK,

    Petitioner,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Respondent.
                  _____________________________

Petition Alleging Ineffective Assistance of Appellate Counsel—
Original Jurisdiction.

                       September 22, 2021

PER CURIAM.

     The Court denies the petition alleging ineffective assistance
of appellate counsel on the merits. See Topps v. State, 865 So. 2d
1253, 1258 (Fla. 2004) (explaining that a decision on an
extraordinary writ petition that “clearly shows that the issue was
considered by the court on the merits” is deemed a decision “which
would later bar the litigant from presenting the issue under the
doctrines of res judicata or collateral estoppel”).

RAY, JAY, and TANENBAUM, JJ., concur.
                 _____________________________

    Not final until disposition of any timely and
    authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or
    9.331.
               _____________________________

Christopher J. Hranek, pro se, Petitioner.

Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Respondent.
