                  _____________________________

                          No. 1D17-3655
                  _____________________________

MICHAEL J. MARTIN,

    Petitioner,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Respondent.
                  _____________________________

Petition Alleging Ineffective Assistance of Appellate Counsel—
Original Jurisdiction.

                        October 31, 2018

PER CURIAM.

    DENIED.

OSTERHAUS and WINSOR, JJ., concur; WOLF, J., dissents with
opinion.
              _____________________________

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

WOLF, J., dissenting.
    I would grant the petition for ineffective assistance of
appellate counsel. See Andujar-Ruiz v. State, 205 So. 3d 803 (Fla.
2d DCA 2016) (holding appellate counsel was ineffective for failing
to argue trial court’s instruction on duty to retreat constituted
fundamental error).

                 _____________________________

Michael J. Martin, pro se, Petitioner.

Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Kaitlin Weiss, Assistant
Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Respondent.
