Borges v. Stategreen2 sentences2024The legislative rules were adopted against the backdrop of Blockburger and Florida’s prior adherence to the “single transaction rule,” under which, as we held in Simmons v. State, 10 So. 2d 436, 439 (Fla. 1942), “there should be one punishment where . . . the various counts of the information presented different aspects of the same criminal transaction and . . . the court should impose a sentence on the count which charges the higher grade or degree of the offense.” From its inception in 1976, section 775.021(4) “abrogated the single transaction rule.” Borges v.

[27] Section 775.021(4), Florida Statutes, was originally enacted to abolish the single transaction rule, a court created concept that in concept and result somewhat resembled, and was generally confused with, constitutional double jeopardy rights, see Baker v.

State, 425 So.2d 36 (Fla. 5th DCA 1982), quashed in part by 456 So.2d 419 (Fla. 1984), which showed that whatever validity it once had, the category of permissive lesser included offenses was nullified by the enactment of § 775.021(4) repudiating the single transaction rule.

Brown v. Stategreen2 sentences1987The Schedule of Lesser Included Offenses included therein was grounded on Brown v. State, 206 So.2d 377 (Fla.1968), and the single transaction rule. 1986Justice Thornal in Brown v. State, 206 So.2d 377 (Fla. 1968), did not originate the concept of permissive or possible lesser included offenses; that concept was an adjunct, and outgrowth, of the single transaction rule. | 1 | 7 |
Cone v. Stategreen2 sentences1975He contends, among other things, that the trial court erred in imposing consecutive sentences; that such was in violation of the single transaction rule as set forth in Cone v. State, Fla., 285 So.2d 12 (1973), and other opinions of the Supreme Court and appellate courts. 1975Until it does, we assume that by making breaking and entering with the intent to commit grand larceny three times more serious than breaking and entering with intent to commit petit larceny, the intent was to acknowledge the single transaction rule as a limitation of punishment for a single episode." The Second District Court of Appeal in Baggett v. State, supra, specifically found that breaking and entering with intent to commit a felony and grand larceny were facets of the same transaction and according to this Court's decision in Cone v.

[1] However, essentially it is an erroneous double jeopardy analysis based on concepts underlying the single transaction rule. 1982See, e.g., Jackson v.

Jenkins v. Wainwright

2 sentences1981However, the principal case relied on for that conclusion, Kirkland v. State, 299 So.2d 54 (Fla. 1st DCA 1974), was reversed by the Supreme Court in State v. Kirkland, 322 So.2d 480 (Fla. 1975); also see Jenkins v. Wainwright, 322 So.2d 477 (Fla. 1975). 1976It held that "the attempted sexual battery for which the appellant was convicted was an essential element of the breaking and entering charge." In Jenkins, supra, this Court upheld the imposition of separate sentences for possession of cannabis sativa and possession of an hallucinogenic drug even though the defendant was found in possession of the two separate drug substances on the same occasion. | 4 | 1975–1981 |

State, 366 So.2d 418 (Fla. 1978), I would simply observe that the single transaction rule has since been supplanted by the legislature's amendment to § 775.021(4), Fla. Stat., effective June 22, 1983, see Ch. 83-156, Laws of Fla., requiring separate sentences for each criminal offense, "if each offense requires proof of an element that the other does not... ."
