Case No. 5D14-822 STATE OF FLORIDA, Appellee. ________________________________/ Opinion filed October 3, 2014 3.850 Appeal from the Circuit Court for Lake County, William G. Law, Jr., Judge. Travis Lucas, Wewahitchka, pro se. Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, Tallahassee, Pamela J. Koller and Kaylee D. Tatman, Assistant Attorney Generals, Daytona Beach, for Appellee. PER CURIAM Travis Lucas appeals the trial court's order summarily denying his rule 3.850 motion for postconviction relief as improperly successive. After considering the unique procedural history of this case, we conclude that good cause existed to allow the successive filing. See Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.850(h)(2). Accordingly, we reverse the order of the trial court and remand for consideration on the merits. REVERSED and REMANDED. ORFINGER, COHEN and BERGER, JJ., concur.
