ROBERT CRAFT                             vs.    STATE OF FLORIDA

Appellant(s)                                    Appellee(s)

      Appellant’s Motion for Rehearing is hereby denied.

CANADY, C.J., and POLSTON, LABARGA, LAWSON, MUÑIZ, COURIEL,
and GROSSHANS, JJ., concur.
LABARGA, J., concurs with an opinion.

LABARGA, J., concurring.

      I agree that Craft has not established a basis for rehearing, and consequently,

I have voted to deny rehearing. However, I firmly adhere to my dissent in

Lawrence v. State, 308 So. 3d 544 (Fla. 2020), and my belief that proportionality

review is an essential part of this Court’s review of death penalty cases on direct

appeal.
