Supreme Court of Florida

The court declines to decide whether Apprendi and Blakely apply in a resentencing held after those opinions issued, when the conviction and original sentence were final before they issued. The court rules that even if there was any error in failing to apply Apprendi and Blakely in the case at hand, it constituted harmless error.
