Reed v. State

PER CURIAM. We reverse in part the trial court’s order denying Willie Bud Reed Jr.’s petition for writ of habeas corpus. Reed alleged a legally sufficient claim requesting permis [966] sion to file a belated motion for postconviction relief. On remand the trial court shall conduct an evidentiary hearing to determine whether appellant retained counsel to timely file a rule 3.850 motion and whether counsel failed to timely file such a motion.
