party, or if the lower court appropriately entertains an untimely petition for rehearing or sua sponte considers rehearing, the time to file the petition for a writ of certiorari for all parties (whether or not they requested rehearing or joined in the petition for rehearing) runs from the date of the denial of rehearing or, if rehearing is granted, the subsequent entry of judgment. S. Ct. R. 13.3. As Ramirez concedes in his motion for extension of time to file his Petition, he never sought rehearing. (R.A.21). Accordingly, his situation does not meet any of this Court's exceptions to the 90-day time limit contained in Rule 13.3. See S. Ct R. 13.3. And despite stating in his November 21, 2016, motion for extension of time, that he was seeking a writ of certiorari based on an order dated September 7, 2016, Ramirez's Petition only disputes the April 20, 2016, order of dismissal. Petitioner's attempt, beginning on November 21, 2016, to seek a writ of certiorari based on the Eleventh Circuit's April 20, 2016, dismissal order and rejection of his April 12, 2016, motion, is therefore untimely. Similarly, Ramirez has not demonstrated entitlement to a writ of mandamus and appears to have included the request, by making a comment in a footnote, in an attempt to avoid or excuse the fact of his tardy Petition. (Petition, p. 10, n.5.) Not only has Ramirez failed to follow the procedures in Supreme Court Rule 20.3 to properly request such a writ, he has failed, for all of the reasons discussed herein, to meet his burden to show his "right to issuance of the writ is 'clear and indisputable."

T h e Petition Does Not Satisfy This Court's Requirements for Granting Certiorari. Even if this Court determines Ramirez's Petition is timely, there are no compelling reasons to grant the Petition. Supreme Court Rule 10 provides that "[a] petition for a writ of certiorari will be granted only for compelling reasons." Sup. Ct. R. 10. Rule 10 lists the following examples of the types of cases in which the Court may grant certiorari: (a) a United States court of appeals has entered a decision in conflict with the decision of another United States court of appeals on the same important matter; has decided an important federal question in a way that conflicts with a decision by a state court of last resort; or has so far departed from the accepted and usual course of judicial proceedings, or sanctioned such a departure by a lower court, as to call for an exercise of this Court's supervisory power; (b) a state court of last resort has decided an important federal question in a way that conflicts with the decision of another state court of last resort or of a United States court of appeals; (c) a state court or United States court of appeals has decided an important question of federal law that has not been, but should be, settled by this Court, or has decided an important federal question in a way that conflicts with relevant decisions of this Court. 14
