Hankerson v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 22, 2006 · Hawkes, Thomas, Wolf
929 So. 2d 691; 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 7983; 2006 WL 1373236 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Hankerson v. State

Opinion of the Court

WOLF, J.

Appellant raises three issues on appeal, none of which have any merit, and only one of which requires brief discussion. Appellant’s retrial for first degree murder and resulting conviction for third degree murder following his earlier conviction as charged for second degree murder which was reversed on grounds other than sufficiency of the evidence, was not barred by principles of double jeopardy. See State v. Lynch, 134 N.M. 139, 74 P.3d 73, 75-77 (2003). Affirmed.

HAWKES and THOMAS, JJ., concur.
