green Jones v. State (1985)
Rule Authority · Fla. Dist. Ct. App. · 2 citations in this opinion

State, 62 So.2d 41, 42 (Fla. 1952); Harrison v. State, 104 So.2d 391, 395 (Fla. 1st DCA 1958), and have applied the above-stated circumstantial evidence standard fairly rigorously when evaluating the sufficiency of such evidence to convict.

State, 104 So.2d 391, 395 (Fla. 1st DCA 1958).
