Kellum v. State
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 18, 2018 · Rowe, Thomas, Winsor
242 So. 3d 539 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Kellum v. State

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

*540Lidale R. Kellum appeals the trial court's denial of his motion seeking postconviction relief based on newly discovered evidence. Because the evidence on which Kellum relied was discoverable at the time of his violation of probation hearing, the trial court properly denied the motion. See Rutherford v. State , 926 So.2d 1100, 1107 (Fla. 2006) (holding that newly discovered evidence must be based on facts that were unknown to the trial court, appellant, and his counsel at the time of trial and that neither the appellant nor his counsel could have discovered the facts through the exercise of due diligence).

AFFIRMED.
