Mr. Floyd was convicted of second-degree murder in the fatal shooting of Getyron Benjamin in 2010 and sentenced to 30 years in prison. On appeal, the First District Court of Appeal reversed his conviction for fundamental error, ruling that the trial court’s instructions to the jury were contradictory and undercut Mr. Floyd’s “stand your ground” 4 defense. The 1st DCA then certified the issue as one of great public importance for this Court’s review.
