IFP petition · Supreme Court of Florida, No. SC2025-0873 · judgment June 23, 2025


Certiorari denied · May 18, 2026

Questions presented

  1. The Appellate disagrees with the DCA and a law they are citing. They stated in a letter; All state-level appeals and collateral attacks on any judgment must be completed within two years from the date of appeal. The lower court neglect and mishandled Appellate's case delaying the time ofjudgment from 2 years to 5-6 years during which time was a world wide covid pandemic.

  2. How can* defense attorney admittedly testify to having no communications with his client to discuss her case and still not be found ineffective, when the sixth Amendment imposes on counsel a duty to investigate, because reasonable effective assistance must be based on professional decisions and informed legal choices can only be made after investigation of options, there can be no strategic choice that renders such an investigation unnecessary?

  3. How can the U.S. Constitution Sixth Amendment provide defendant's a right to obtain witnesses in his favor but defense refused to call any and the courts appeal process deny this right to have witnesses?

  4. How can the perjury laws be overlooked for the state witnesses, and the state attorney knew of the lying but continue to use them as witnesses and the defense attorney is not found ineffective for failing to bring witness perjury to the jury's attention?

  5. How can a recording of a recording done on a I-phone be admitted when the judge stated β€œfor the record the indicator read all zeroes.” Without time and date stamps the date of origin or time of day is unknown. In addition the video had no relevancy, the state had no idea what type of vehicle, what color it was or who was driving the vehicle and could not see the licence place.

  6. Judge Pader overlooked laws, case law and statues. She was misleading,
