Jesse Guardado, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee.

Summary

The Supreme Court of Florida affirmed the circuit court’s summary denial of Guardado’s motion to vacate his death sentence, holding that any Hurst error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt and that Caldwell v. Mississippi and Sullivan v. Louisiana do not affect the harmless‑error analysis. The Court also noted that Guardado’s arguments were identical to those previously rejected in his habeas petition.
