    Joaquin MARINO, Petitioner, v. STATE of Florida, Respondent.
    No. 4D02-1145.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    Sept. 11, 2002.
    Rehearing Denied Oct. 29, 2002.
    Joaquin Marino, Raiford, pro se.
    Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and David M. Schultz, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

After petitioner filed his petition for writ of habeas corpus for belated appeal, this Court appointed a commissioner to make factual findings regarding whether petitioner made a timely request for counsel. The commissioner found that the petitioner failed to communicate to his attorney that he desired an appeal. In light of such finding, we deny the petition.

WARNER, TAYLOR and MAY, JJ., concur.
