Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

criminal law-sentencing

When a court imposes an illegal/unstatutory 3 year min-mandatory sentence that the statute and the Fla and US Supreme courts have uphels as illegal and unconstitutional and then the lower courts refuse to follow the law as written and decided by denying re-sentencing to statutory guidelines resulting in over 2 years of false and liiegal imprisonment and the Supreme Court denies jurisdiction to hear an appeal where it had tken jurisdiction before and decided in favor of defendant--what can be done to get resentenced to a lawful sentence?

If you do not agree, then stop right here, and do not read any further.

Apparently the courts have disagreed with your interpretation of the law and the sentencing guidelines. You have pretty much exhausted your appeals rights.
