Not final until disposition of timely filed motion for rehearing. ________________ No. 3D21-0705 Lower Tribunal No. F01-34564A ________________ Michael LoCascio, Appellant, vs. The State of Florida, Appellee. An Appeal under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.141(b)(2) from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Marlene Fernandez-Karavetsos, Judge. Michael LoCascio, in proper person. Ashley Moody, Attorney General, for appellee. Before FERNANDEZ, C.J., and LINDSEY and BOKOR, JJ. PER CURIAM. Michael LoCascio appeals the denial of a successive motion for postconviction relief. Including direct appeal, this is the third time he has raised some of these issues, and at least the second time he has raised the rest. Mr. LoCascio claims newly discovered evidence warrants an evidentiary hearing. However, Mr. LoCascio has previously presented these issues, along with the purported relevant evidence, before both the trial court and this Court. Each time, this Court found no merit to the claims. See LoCascio v. State, No. 3D12-574, 2012 WL 1109484 (Fla. 3d DCA Apr. 4, 2012); see also LoCascio v. State, 76 So. 3d 304 (Fla. 3d DCA 2011). Affirmed. 2
