¶1Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, for Appellee.

¶2PER CURIAM.

¶3Upon consideration of the appellant's response to the Court's order of August 5, 2002, the Court has determined that the *409 appellant's motion for rehearing was not timely served, and therefore did not delay rendition of the Order Denying Petition for Writ of Habeas Corpus. See Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.530(b). Thus, the appellant's notice of appeal was not timely. Accordingly, the appeal is hereby dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
