Overview: It was proper to deny an inmate's Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.851 successive postconviction petition because an evidentiary hearing was not warranted on his Brady claim. There was no Brady violation when evidence disposition forms were neither favorable nor material to the inmate, and the State's failure to disclose them did not prejudice the inmate.
