Supreme Court of Florida

Quawn M. Franklin, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee.

February 15, 2018236 So. 3d 989

Summary

The court affirmed the summary denial of Franklin's successive postconviction motion challenging his death sentence. It held that any penalty-phase jury-verdict error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt because the jury unanimously found all four aggravating factors and unanimously recommended death. It also held that Franklin's claim concerning the jury's advisory role was procedurally barred and would not warrant relief on the merits. No separate opinions were filed.
