Supreme Court of Florida
William Roger Davis, Iii, Appellant v. State of Florida, Appellee.
October 25, 2018257 So. 3d 100
Summary
The court affirmed the dismissal of Davis's pending postconviction proceedings after determining that his waiver was knowing, voluntary, and intelligent. It held that Davis could waive his pending postconviction claims, including his potentially meritorious Hurst claim, while retaining counsel to pursue future execution-related claims. The court concluded that the postconviction court did not abuse its discretion in approving that limited waiver.
