Can someone in Florida file a writ of certiorari on a county criminal case to the circuit court after the order is entered but before they have their trial or does the appeal have to be done after a conviction since no harm has happened to the person yet? The writ of certiorari would be filed on a denied motion to suppress evidence if allowed with the argument the court didn't follow the essential requirements of the law. A friend asked me and I did a quick search and told him I wasn't sure if any appeal like that is allowed before a person is convicted in court.
