Supreme Court of Florida

Kevin Don Foster v. State of Florida – Corrected Opinion

December 13, 2018

Summary

The Florida Supreme Court affirmed the circuit court’s denial of Kevin Don Foster’s successive post‑conviction relief motion, holding that Hurst is not retroactive to his case, that due‑process and Eighth‑Amendment challenges to his death sentence fail, and that his newly‑discovered‑evidence claim regarding his age is insufficient.
