PER CURIAM.

¶1The petition for writ of habeas corpus is hereby denied as successive. See Jenkins v. Wainwright, 322 So.2d 477, 478 (Fla.1975) (stating that once a petitioner seeks relief in a particular court by means of a petition for extraordinary writ, he has picked his forum and is not entitled to a second or third opportunity for the same relief by the same writ).

BENTON, C.J., PADOVANO and WETHERELL, JJ., concur.
