2009The postconviction court denied the claim, in part, on the ground that “forfeiture of accumulated gain time by DOC is a collateral consequence of a plea and neither the Court nor counsel must advise a defendant of this consequence for the plea to be valid.” 3 However, “[affirmative misadvice about even a collateral consequence of a plea constitutes ineffective assistance of counsel and provides a basis on which to withdraw the plea.” Roberti v.

Johnson v. State green

2014The postconviction court denied the claim that trial counsel were deficient for not requesting a limiting instruction, finding that counsel did not engage in an “unsound trial strategy” by deciding to proceed “in a manner that would not call attention to Vitale’s testimony.” Although this Court stated on direct appeal that “the prejudicial impact of the evidence could have been ameliorated to some extent by an instruction to consider the evidence solely on the issue of the defendant’s intent,” id., trial counsels’ failure to object or move for a limiting instruction cannot be deemed deficient

2012Indeed, in Morgan v. State, 991 So.2d 835 (Fla.2008), the supreme court held that the defendant’s allegation that he rejected a plea offer at trial counsel’s urging based on counsel’s incorrect assertion that the defendant would prevail at trial was not in itself sufficient to establish a basis for postconviction relief.

State, 915 So.2d 1256 (Fla. 4th DCA 2005), review granted, 935 So.2d 499 (Fla.2006). 1 It is apparent from the limited postconviction record that the court denied this claim on its merits rather than for pleading deficiencies.

Clark v. State green
fla · 1997
1 sentence

2008The postconviction court denied this claim, first noting that defense counsel did not concede to a crime which was at issue, but simply acknowledged a crime for which the defendant had already been convicted and used this concession "as a cornerstone of his defense." The court concluded that "[t]his tactic was not only reasonable, but even in retrospect, it was quite clever." Williams challenges this ruling, contending that the Court has already condemned a similar argument in Clark v. State, 690 So.2d 1280 (Fla.1997).
