Click to open document 02/20/2017 DISP-DENIED FSC-OPINION: Accordingly, pursuant to our holding in Perry, the revised statutory scheme in chapter 2016-13, Laws of Florida, can be applied to pending prosecutions because "most of the provisions of the Act can be construed constitutionally and [can] otherwise be validly applied to pending prosecutions." Id. at S451. Importantly, however, the provision of the Act identified as problematic in Perry, which amends section 921.141(2)(c), can only be constitutionally applied under our decisions in Hurst and Perry to pending prosecutions for a jury recommendation of death if twelve jurors unanimously determine that a defendant should be sentenced to death. Therefore, we deny Evans' and Rosario's petitions for writs of prohibition. The trial courts in Evans and Rosario may proceed with death qualifying juries. It is so ordered.
