LAWRENCE v. STATE (2020)

Appellant's Motion for Rehearing is hereby denied.

I agree that Lawrence has not established a basis for rehearing, and consequently, I have voted to deny rehearing. However, I firmly adhere to my dissent in Lawrence v. State, 308 So.3d 544 (Fla. Oct. 29, 2020), and my belief that proportionality review is an essential part of this Court's review of death penalty cases on direct appeal.

CANADY, C.J., and POLSTON, LABARGA, LAWSON, MUÑIZ, and COURIEL, JJ., concur. LABARGA, J., concurs with an opinion. GROSSHANS, J., did not participate.
