Haliburton v. State
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the trial court denying Appellant's motion for a determination of intellectual disability as a bar to execution and his amended successive motion for postconviction relief, holding that relief was properly denied.
Appellant was convicted of murder and sentenced to death. Appellant later filed a successive motion for postconviction relief seeking to vacate his death sentence on the ground that he was intellectually disabled. Appellant also brought claims under Hurst v. Florida, 577 U.S. 92 (2016), and Hurst v. State, 202 So. 3d 40 (Fla. 2016). The trial court ultimately denied Appellant's intellectual disability and Hurst-related claims. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the trial court did not err in denying relief.
