07/31/2006 NOTICE-ADDRESS CHANGE RS Solomon Willis BY: RS Bianca G. Liston 555592
10/12/2006 DISP-QUASHED For the reasons stated above, we hold that, as a matter of law, the possibility of a jury pardon cannot form the basis for a finding of prejudice under Strickland. Therefore, a claim alleging ineffective assistance of counsel for failure to request an instruction on a lesser-included offense may be summarily denied. We approve the reasoning as well as the denial of postconviction relief of the First District, sitting en banc, in Sanders. We quash the Fourth District's decision in Willis.
