Supreme Court of Florida

Anthony Floyd Wainwright v. State of Florida

June 3, 2025411 So. 3d 392

Summary

The court affirmed the summary denial of Wainwright’s amended eighth successive postconviction motion and denied a stay of execution. It held that his jury-factfinding challenge was procedurally barred and that the asserted new rule would not apply retroactively. It also held that the toxin-related evidence was not newly discovered or material and that the alleged undisclosed benefits involving a jailhouse informant did not establish a qualifying disclosure violation or material prejudice.
