Edward Allen Covington v. State of Florida & Edward Allen Covington v. Ricky D. Dixon

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Covington's postconviction motion and denied his habeas petition challenging three murder convictions and death sentences. It held that none of Covington's penalty-phase ineffective-assistance claims established deficient performance or prejudice, and that his remaining constitutional and proportionality claims were procedurally barred or meritless. No separate opinions were filed.
