Click to open document 11/15/2017 REPLY TO REPLY AA Gary Ray Bowles 086158 BY: AA Francis Jerome Shea 292524 APPELLANT'S REPLY IN SUPPORT OF RESPONSE TO ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE
Click to open document 01/29/2018 DISP-AFFIRMED FSC-OPINION: After reviewing Bowles' response to the order to show cause, as well as the State's arguments in reply, we conclude that Bowles is not entitled to relief. Bowles was sentenced to death following a jury's unanimous recommendation for death. Bowles v. State, 804 So. 2d 1173, 1175 (Fla. 2001). Bowles's sentence of death became final on June 17, 2002. Bowles v. Florida, 536 U.S. 930 (2002). Thus, Hurst does not apply retroactively to Bowles' sentence of death. See Hitchcock, 226 So. 3d at 217. Accordingly, we affirm the denial of Bowles' motion.
