Jermaine Foster v. State of Florida

Summary

The court affirmed the denial of Foster’s amended successive postconviction motion. It held that competent, substantial evidence supported the postconviction court’s finding that Henderson was not coerced into giving false testimony, defeating Foster’s Brady and Giglio claims. The court also held that excluding a polygraph report was within the court’s discretion and, alternatively, any error was harmless because substantially similar information was admitted through a letter. No separate opinions were filed.
