Supreme Court of Florida


Coppola v. State of Florida, SC01-2442

The court's decision in Heggs v. State, 759 So. 2d 620 (Fla. 2000), does not constitute "newly discovered evidence" for purposes of Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850(b)(1). Further, because of his negotiated plea, petitioner is barred from seeking relief under Heggs.
