Guillermo Octavio Arbelaez,                          SC2018-0392
            Petitioner(s)                     Lower Tribunal No(s).:
v.                                         131988CF0055460001XX

Ricky D. Dixon, etc.
            Respondent(s)

     The “Motion for Rehearing” filed by the Appellant/Petitioner is
hereby denied.

MUÑIZ, C.J., and CANADY, LABARGA, COURIEL, GROSSHANS,
and FRANCIS, JJ., concur.
LABARGA, J., concurs with an opinion.
SASSO, J., did not participate.

LABARGA, J., concurring.

     I continue to adhere to my dissent in Arbelaez v. State, 48 Fla.

L. Weekly S88 (Fla. May 25, 2023), wherein I reaffirmed my

dissenting view in Phillips v. State, 299 So. 3d 1013 (Fla. 2020), and
CASE NO.: SC2015-1628
CASE NO.: SC2018-0392
Page Two

my belief that Hall v. Florida, 572 U.S. 701 (2014), applies

retroactively.

     However, I agree that Arbelaez has not established a basis for

this Court to grant rehearing. Consequently, I have voted to deny

rehearing.
