John Steven Huggins, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee; John Steven Huggins, Petitioner, v. Michael D. Crews…

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Huggins’s postconviction motion and denied his habeas petition. It held that the postconviction court reasonably found Huggins competent, that his ineffective-assistance claims failed on deficiency or prejudice grounds or were unavailable because he represented himself, and that his prosecutorial-misconduct, disclosure, and restraint claims were procedurally barred or meritless. The court also rejected his related claims of ineffective assistance of appellate counsel.
