1Per curiam

We grant the Petition For Writ of Habe-as Corpus and grant unto Rudolph Kelley the right to pursue a belated appeal. This is done on the grounds of ineffective assistance of counsel by reason of the fact that the appointed Public Defender through inadvertence failed to file a timely appeal as requested by Kelley. See State v. Meyer, 430 So.2d 440 (Fla.1983). .

GRANTED.
