How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • confirming that claims regarding the adequacy or constitutionality of jury instructions should be raised on direct appeal not via a Rule 3.850 post-conviction motion
  • noting that in the 1991 trial “the flaws inherent in CBLA science were unknown or not publically acknowledged at the time of trial.”
  • explaining that this Court has “recognized newly discovered evidence claims predicated upon new testing methods or techniques that did not exist at the time of trial, but are used to test evidence introduced at the original trial”
  • denying claim - 17 - that these provisions unconstitutionally restrict a defendant’s right to public-records access because they impermissibly mandate that his demand for public records not be “overly broad or unduly burdensome” and that he make his own search for records
  • claim was insufficiently pled and therefore waived for purposes of - 27 - appeal when defendant cited no authority demonstrating a right to public-records access
  • defense counsel did not provide ineffective assistance of counsel with respect to CBLA evidence at 1991 trial when comprehensive research concerning flaws in CBLA evidence did not exist until well after that trial
