FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL
                STATE OF FLORIDA
                  _____________________________

                          No. 1D18-3233
                  _____________________________

KEVIN L. CHRISTY,

    Petitioner,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Respondent.
                  _____________________________

Petition for Writ of Prohibition—Original Jurisdiction.

                         October 3, 2018

PER CURIAM.

     The “petition for writ of prohibition habeas corpus, ad
prosequendum, mandamus and/or discharge” is denied on the
merits. See Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.191 (providing
that the period for speedy trial without demand runs from the
date of arrest, and the period for speedy trial upon demand runs
from the date of the indictment or information). Here, even
though Petitioner was incarcerated on other charges, the arrest
warrant related to this case was not executed until August 28,
2018. Thus, the speedy trial period had not begun to run as
Petitioner filed the demand for and notice of expiration of speedy
trial and motion to discharge before that date.

MAKAR, OSTERHAUS, and M.K. THOMAS, JJ., concur.
                 _____________________________

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