Royster v. State

Royster v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 1, 2014 · Morris, Davis, Khouzam
148 So. 3d 147; 2014 Fla. App. LEXIS 15253; 2014 WL 4853497 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Royster v. State

Opinion

MORRIS, Judge.

Davone Lamar Royster appeals his judgments for first-degree murder, attempted armed robbery with a firearm or deadly weapon, and attempted first-degree murder. He also appeals his life sentence with the possibility of parole on the first-degree murder conviction. He first argues that the trial court erred by refusing to require the State to provide immunity to a State witness or to suffer a judgment of acquittal. We affirm that issue without further comment. We also affirm on the second issue, regarding the legality of his life sentence with the possibility of parole, which is controlled by our recent opinion in Rodriguez-Giudicelli v. State, 143 So.3d 947 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014).

Affirmed.

DAVIS, C.J., and KHOUZAM, J., Concur.
