                            ________________

                             No. 3D21-1722
                      Lower Tribunal No. F93-36795
                          ________________

                           Wilbur L. Mitchell,
                                 Petitioner,

                                     vs.

                         The State of Florida,
                                Respondent.

     A Case of Original Jurisdiction – Habeas Corpus.

     Wilbur L. Mitchell, in proper person.

     Ashley Moody, Attorney General, for respondent.

Before MILLER, LOBREE and BOKOR, JJ.

     PER CURIAM.

     Petitioner seeks habeas corpus relief raising an argument which he

has raised in multiple previous appeals or petitions. Petitioner may not
rephrase or re-raise the same argument, or variations thereof, multiple

times. Additionally, Petitioner cannot seek relief on an issue adjudicated by

this Court by recasting what would be a successive (or otherwise improper)

postconviction collateral appeal as a habeas corpus petition. See, e.g.,

Baker v. State, 878 So. 2d 1236, 1245 (Fla. 2004) (“The remedy of habeas

corpus is not available in Florida to obtain the kind of collateral

postconviction relief available by motion in the sentencing court pursuant to

rule 3.850.”); see also Mitchell v. State, No. 3D20-1702, 2021 WL 48217

(Fla. Jan. 6, 2021) (affirming postconviction appeal on same grounds).

Petition dismissed.
