Supreme Court of Florida
Van Poyck v. State of Florida, SC05-1513
In a death penalty case, denial of a successive motion for postconviction relief, which raised a claim that an affidavit by a prison acquaintance of a codefendant constituted newly discovered evidence, is affirmed based on decisions in previous appeals rejecting related claims concerning the identity of a triggerman, including a 2005 affirmance of a denial of DNA testing.
