    Reynaldo MILLETTE, Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    No. 2D14-1440.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
    Oct. 10, 2014.
    Reynaldo Millette, pro se.
   CASANUEVA, Judge.

Reynaldo Millette appeals the postcon-viction court order summarily denying his motion filed under Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850(b)(3), wherein Mr. Millette sought leave to file a belated post-conviction motion on the basis that his privately retained counsel failed to timely file the motion. Because counsel did in fact file a timely motion for postconviction relief on August 22, 2012, and timely amended that motion on May 23, 2013, we affirm the postconviction court’s order. However, we note that the postconviction court erroneously dismissed the amended motion as untimely. See Rosier v. State, 144 So.3d 604 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014). It also appears Mr. Millette was not adequately informed of his right to seek appellate review of the postconviction court’s determination that the motion was untimely. Therefore, our affirmance is without prejudice to any right Mr. Millette may have to file a petition for belated appeal of the postconviction court order rendered July 23, 2013, dismissing as untimely his previous rule 3.850 motion filed by counsel; he has until July 23, 2015, to file a timely petition. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.141(c). Mr. Millette should reference this opinion in his petition for belated appeal.

Affirmed.
