Richard Barry Randolph v. State of Florida & Richard Barry Randolph v. Secretary, Department of Corrections

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Randolph's fourth successive postconviction motion and denied his habeas petition. It held that his method-of-execution claim was untimely, procedurally barred, and legally insufficient; that the warrant-period, public-records, and clemency claims lacked merit; and that his claim concerning counsel's concessions of guilt was likewise procedurally barred and failed on the merits. The court also declined to stay the execution or hold oral argument.
