    Isaac SUTTON, Jr., Appellant, v. STATE of Florida, Appellee.
    Case No. 2D16-3856
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
    Opinion filed October 25, 2017
    Isaac Sutton, Jr., pro se.
   PER CURIAM.

Isaac Sutton, Jr., appeals the dismissal of his motion for postconviction relief filed pursuant to Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850. In May 2016, Sutton filed his rule 3.850 motion in circuit court case number 01-CF-1334, challenging a conviction that was later used to habitualize him when he was convicted of new offenses in 2009. The postconviction court dismissed Sutton’s rule 3.850 motion as untimely, finding that his conviction in 01-CF-1334 became final in 2008 when a mandate was issued in his direct appeal and that he had until April 24, 2010, to file a timely rule 3.850 motion.

We affirm the postconviction court’s dismissal; however, we clarify the dates that render his motion untimely. The dates relied on by the postconviction court relate to one of Sutton’s other postconviction appeals (2D07-5888), rather than the direct appeal from his judgment and sentence in 01-CF-1334. Sutton’s judgment and sentence in 01-CF-1334 was affirmed in 2003 in 2D03-160, and the mandate issued on February 2, 2004. Therefore, he had until February 2006 to file a timely rule 3.850 motion relating to his conviction in that case. See Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.850(b). Based on the allegations in his rule 3.850 motion, none of the exceptions to the two-year time limit apply.

Affirmed.
