Leonard P. Gonzalez, Jr., Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee.

Summary

The Florida Supreme Court affirmed the post‑conviction court’s summary denial of Gonzalez’s two ineffective‑assistance claims – one concerning a failure to renew a change‑of‑venue motion and the other concerning a failure to challenge the indictment. The Court held that the record positively refuted the change‑of‑venue claim and that the indictment‑challenge claim was legally insufficient and speculative, so neither claim warranted an evidentiary hearing.
