Supreme Court of Florida
James Milton Dailey, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee.
June 26, 2018247 So. 3d 390
Summary
The Florida Supreme Court reviewed James Milton Dailey’s post‑conviction motion seeking retroactive application of the United States Supreme Court’s decision in Hurst v. Florida. The Court held that Hurst does not apply retroactively to Dailey’s death sentence and affirmed the circuit court’s denial of the motion, leaving the death sentence in place. The decision also noted that any rehearing motion containing reargument will be stricken.
