Ernest D. Suggs v. State of Florida

Summary

The court affirmed the summary denial of Suggs's third and fourth successive postconviction motions. It held that his claims were untimely or procedurally barred because the asserted evidence and theories could have been raised earlier, and it alternatively rejected several claims on the merits because the evidence was inadmissible, unreliable, speculative, or insufficient to probably produce an acquittal. The court also held that a circuit court cannot grant relief from a prior decision of the supreme court through a postconviction motion.
