FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL
                 STATE OF FLORIDA
                  _____________________________

                         No. 1D2023-2518
                  _____________________________

SHANE GRANVILLE,

    Petitioner,

    v.

STATE OF FLORIDA,

    Respondent.
                  _____________________________

Petition for Writ of Mandamus—Original Jurisdiction.

                         March 13, 2024

PER CURIAM.

     The Court dismisses the petition for writ of mandamus as
moot. See State ex rel. Davis v. Milledge, 88 So. 2d 909, 909 (Fla.
1956) (dismissing mandamus proceeding because question raised
in petition became moot); see also Barrs v. Peacock, 61 So. 118, 118
(Fla. 1913) (explaining that a court may dismiss an appeal on its
own motion if it appears that “under no circumstances can th[e]
relief prayed be made effective”); Godwin v. State, 593 So. 2d 211,
212 (Fla. 1992) (“A case is ‘moot’ when it presents no actual
controversy or when the issues have ceased to exist. A moot case
generally will be dismissed.”).

LEWIS, B.L. THOMAS, and TANENBAUM, JJ., concur.
                 _____________________________

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