IN THE SUPREME COURT OF THE STATE OF FLORIDA

ROBERT LEE ANDREWS,Petitioner, Case No.: Sc.4%si

DCA Case No.: 4D11-4677V. Ex Parte

STATE OF FLORIDA Et Al.,Respondent(s),

PETITIONER'S INITIAL BRIEF ON JURISDICTION

COMES NOW, the Petitioner, Robert Lee Andrews, pro-se, Pursuant to

Rule 3.850 Post-conviction motion, and Rules governing U.S. Constitution

fundamental unfair or unreliable, the rights, specific set forth in Art. I, § 9 of the

Florida Constitution, Fourteenth Amendment, and in cases in state, federal and the

United States Supreme Court of Florida, and in initial brief on Jurisdiction for

immediate resolution in the merits to trial court summary denial of post-conviction

and the appeal court reviewing in the context under adversarial system that begin

to prevent affirmances in court orders and judgments rendered December 28, 2005,

and request this court acquit the instant case with prejudice and deny the

respondents petition in all respects.

STATEMENT AND FACTS TO PROCEDURAL

After having been originally charged on July 31, 1994 by information for

robbery with a firearm and possession of and carried a firearm, contrary to Fla.

Stat. §812.13(1) and (2)(a) and §775.087(2). (18' Deg. Fel., PBL) (Level 9) mad:

mg. Andrews' plead not guilty.

Petitioner, by and through his court appointed pre-trial counsel's pursuant to

Rule 3.160(a) Fla. R. Crim. P., and hereby waived his appearance and arraignment

to contest by objections challenging all sworn and unsworn testimonies, evidence

and eyewitnesses identifications on the information whereupon he now tenders

unto the lower court a written plea of not guilty and respectfully demands trial by

jury and further requests leave of court to file within fifteen (15) days appropriate

motions herein, and reserves all objections arising under Rule 3.140(g) Fla. R.

Crim. P., on August 9-31, September 1, 1994.

Petitioner was seized, falsely accused of the firearm and charged with the

alleged crime he did not commit against both State and United States law, and

brought before the magistrate judge.

Petitioner wanted to be present at all hearings that would be held in court

proceedings to contest by objections. Petitioner was discharged upon failure of the

respondents to file formal charges on the information. Later the same day, the

1 (A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F)-(P)...ect., refers to the Appendix previously filed with the Clerk of Court.

7

petitioner was not present, respondent filed formal charges because previously

statement was not part of the court files, which was in error-case reset to August

31, 1994 at 1:30 PM by the presiding judge's order 0032 and 0034. First

appearance for petitioner was September 1, 1994, the order 0035 083194 signed by

William A. Bollinger, Judge presiding in this case2

The victim Shahid Delwar did not identify Andrews as the robber person

who shot him, he could not make a positive identification by photo line-up in this

case.

A motion was filed for Rudine Williamson tampering with evidence and

signed by pre-trial attorney docket 0003. Respondent's evidence presented at pre-

trial proceeding did not establish that Andrews shot the victim in this case.

Respondents (ex parte) petition, by Rudine Williamson written deponent

statement filed in case no.: DA94-002863(A) on October 20, 1994. That Robert

Andrews broke into her apartment and hid a gun in her bedroom. Williamson

turned the gun into authorities and Andrews was arrested.

On January 10, 1995 by Karen Simmons, official transcriptionist, that

Williamson called police department.

That Williamson found this gun in her house, would you all come get it. I

don't know who it belongs to.

2 The circuit court did not have jurisdiction to enter his judgment and sentence because its jurisdiction was neverproperly invoked as all crimes alleged and all the actions pertinent to those crimes occurred in a single judicial

circuit and thus, respondent did not have jurisdiction to prosecute the case.

8

That Williamson fingerprints are probably on the gun because she picked it

up. Id. At (193.-99,

The case proceeded to trial on April 7, 1995, the jury returned a guilty

verdict. Andrews did not testify. The court adjudicated the petitioner Robert

Andrews guilty as charged in the information and sentenced him to life in prison as

a habitual offender on April 20, 1995.

On April 6, 1995, James T. Carlisle, Circuit Court Judge held Rudine

Williamson in contempt of court for failure to obey subpoena from respondents on

April 4, 1995 at 9:30 AM, for the purpose of trial testimony in case no.: 94-07812

CF A02. Appellate counsel filed an initial brief, but Andrews received the

respondents Answer Brief (16) months later.

Petitioner appealed his conviction and sentence, and the appellate court

issued a per curiam affirmance on October 18, 1996. (4th DCA 95-1604)

On August 27, 2010, Andrews executed a petition for writ of habeas corpus.

The court treats the petition as a motion for post-conviction relief pursuant to Rule

3.850(d) Fla. R. Crim. P., raising (5) grounds for relief3:

1.)Impeachment evidence of witness, Rudine Williamson's prior inconsistent

statements, conducted by the assistant state attorney's investigative

interrogation, by detective John Van Houten.

3 Petitioner asserts that it should not be denied as untimely because it challenged the jurisdiction of the circuit court,a matter he argued that can be raised under these circumstances beyond the two year time limit.

9

2.)Impeachment evidence of witness's Martie Hedrick, alleged prior

inconsistent statements, conducted by the assistant state attorney's

investigative interrogation, by detective John Van Houten.

3.)Deposition of detective John Van Houten's prior inconsistent statement with

prosecutors investigative interrogation of the fabricated information related

to witness Martie Hedrick.

4.) Trial counsel's ineffectiveness for failing to challenge conflicting

statements, eyewitnesses identifications on the information, call and

confront the exculpatory bailee Rudine Williamson. Petition filed by

Williamson against petitioner Robert Andrews, to have compulsory process

for obtaining statements in his favor before the jury to the firearm, and to

have the assistance of counsel for the defense.

5.) The respondents Marc Shiner's argument to the jury was not a fair comment

on the evidence.

Here, the respondent was ordered to file a response and failed response and failed

to attach portions of the record.

The trial judge summarily denied the motion without attachments. In denying the

motion, trial judge made no factual findings, other than time barred. Andrews

appealed the summary denial of the motion to the Florida Fourth District Court of

Appeal. Andrews, in pro-se, filed an initial brief raising five (5) issues on appeal,

10

and in support thereof, to attach the appendix previously filed with the Clerk with

all preceding arguments and the record on appeal. Respondent did not file notice of

intent, no to file a response that Rudine Williamson would be a weak witness on

the petitioner's behalf because Williamson herself made conflicting statements

about the firearm to crime when it was investigated. This is an appeal from a

summary denial of a post-conviction motion under Rule 3.850. Under this court's

standard of review, the courts are obligated to reverse "unless the record shows

f..." Pursuant to Fla. R. App. P.

9.141(b)(2)(D) (emphasis added). Since the record does not refute the petitioner's

claim at this point, the court reverse the order. Hoffman v. State, 571 So. 2d 449

(Fla. 1990).

Here, without requiring a response from the respondents to attach specific

pages of the pre-trial, trial proceedings transcripts, the summary denial of the

motion was (per curiam affirmed on Nov. 7, 2012). This court is not precluded by

the Fourth District Court ofAppeal precedent from deciding the issues presented in

this brief, and is instead compelled by the authority of the United States Supreme

Court to grant it.

Is it a violation of the due process clause of the State or Federal

Constitutions for abandoned firearm of contraband in the premises of the

owner's apartment, Rudine Williamson, which was not traced to petitioner

11

Robert Andrews, no eyewitnesses identifications, photographs to firearm

location, fingerprint samples to the firearm and could have belonged to the

perpetrator to the crime who put it there, where the State need not prove and

the jury need not find that petitioner actually constructively possessed the

firearm for aggravated battery/firearm as the shooter and had guilty

knowledge?

Petitioner's conviction and lengthy prison sentence violate the due

process clauses of the Fourteenth Amendment and Article I, § 9 and 10

of the Florida Constitution.

STATEMENT TO MAGISTRATE JUDGE

It does appear that the presiding Honorable James T. Carlisle assigned to this

case was involved in all of Andrews' State Court proceedings. This court accused

petitioner at sentencing and the record would reflect by the transcript. Id. At 1141.

You shot him with a - what is it, Dirty Harry said about a 45, wasn't it? I am not

really worried about whether you get rehabilitated or anything else. I will

adjudicate you to be guilty of such.

Here, the Judge's statement is prejudiced and biased toward the accused

petitioner as the shooter. Moreover, the jury never found that Andrews actually

constructively possessed it and discharged a firearm on aggravated battery/firearm

to robbery in this case.

12

(A)No firearm was discovered on Andrews person

(B)No reliability of a given witness saw Andrews actually constructively

possess the firearm to the robbery.

RECORDS

Petitioner has previously filed an Appendix in paper form. The Appendix

contained the records on direct appeal and post-conviction appeal, as well as the

pleadings filed in those appeals, as set out in footnote 1.

TWO YEAR TIME LIMIT

As set out in footnotes 2, and 3 of the instant brief of the two year limitation

period.

EVIDENTIARY HEARING

No evidentiary hearing was held on Andrews Rule 3.850 motion for post-

conviction relief. No hearing was required as the respondent's record did not refute

Andrews claims unless directed to do so by the compelled authority of the United

States Supreme Court.

Petitioner asserts that an evidentiary hearing is necessary in connection with

the instant petition. In a proceeding instituted by an application for post-conviction

by petitioner in custody pursuant to the judgment of a state court, a determination

on the issues made by a state court shall be presumed to be incorrect.

13

Here, respondents arrest for Robert Andrews aggravated battery/firearm

eyewitnesses identifications to robbery on none capital punishment recommended

that juries be informed of the shortcomings of eyewitness identifications, included

their racial complications, in order to ensure that such evidence is not accepted

unquestionable.

Respondent never implemented to the jury photo line up reforms.

Respondents must rebut this presumption by proof, clear reports and convincing

evidence for aggravated battery/firearm and robbery to eyewitnesses to the alleged

crime to be used on July 31, 1994, and the Supreme Court may issue a Writ of

Certiorari compelling pursuant to Fla. R. App. P. 9.030(a)(2)(A)(B), which

parallels Art.V., § 3(b)(1), Fla. Const., based on determination of Appellate

procedure to the facts in light of the aggravated battery/firearm to robbery and

eyewitnesses identifications to the alleged crime, the decisions should speak to the

same point of law, in factual contexts of sufficient similarity to permit the

inference that the result in each case would have been different had the deciding

court employed the reasoning of the other court.

Petitioner asserts that the record in this case is sufficiently clear for this court

to resolve Andrew's claims on the basis of the record itself without further

evidentiary development. Respondent has not met their burden of proof in this

case.

14

ACQUIT

Pursuant to Ballard v. State, 923 So. 2d 475 (Fla. 2006), and Andrews v.

State, 919 So. 2d 552 (Fla. 4'" DCA 2005), Andrews claims appear to be wholly

circumstantial.

ACQUITTAL/SUMMARY JUDGMINT

Acquittal of a petition for post-conviction relief is appropriate when it

plainly appears from the face of the petition and records that the petitioner is

entitled to relief. Petitioner alleges facts and procedural errors upon prima facie

case, exculpatory clause and bad fruit of the poisonous tree in the state post-

conviction process is addressable through all proceedings.

Ground 1-5 should be acquitted with prejudice and summary judgment

granted for petitioner Robert Andrews. The grounds 1-5, Andrews alleged that the

denial of his claims of circumstantial evidence; which logically lead to respondent

conclusion of factual statement, by the trial judge was insufficient to support

conviction. Petitioner asserts that grounds 1-5 should be acquitted with prejudice.

This court should reverse the judgment and sentence and remand with directions to

exonerate and discharge petitioner Robert Andrews in this case.

Andrews has alleged that this was a circumstantial evidence case in the post-

conviction process and wrongfully convicted, this claim does raise a constitutional

violation. Andrews attacks the rule 3.850(d) proceeding under grounds 1-5 and his

15

detention. Respondents has engaged in misconduct with constructive knowledge,

reports and possession to the materials, mislaid evidence withheld by other state

agents, which included Miranda warning self-incrimination, law enforcement

officers reports in this case.

(A)The owner of the premises is exculpatory, Rudine Williamson, which a

planted firearm was found, acts as bailee, and has the title interest, where

declarant was available to testify.

(B)The firearm is mislaid when it is intentionally put somewhere, but then

forgotten by James Jackson. Andrews v. State, 919 So. 2d 552 (Fla. 4th DCA

2005).

(C)Firearm is abandoned when the owner discarded it without intending to

reclaim it by filed reports in this case.

Petitioner "has identified the specific acts and omissions of counsel's that form the

basis for all his claims of pre-trial, trial ineffective assistance." Trial counsel's

proceedings failure to call exculpatory bailee, Rudine Williamson, to testify to the

firearm, this claim is sufficient. Id. At (T-74-77).

"Evidence about the testimony of Rudine Williamson must generally be

presented in the form of actual testimony by petition filed and Williamson affidavit

to the firearm and the alleged crime on July 29, 1994."

16

Petitioner Robert Andrews has shown and presented, substantiating the

proposed exculpatory testimony ofRudine Williamson.

"The evidence was proof a sworn petition, affidavit and recorded depositions

form Rudine Williamson and James Jackson potential witnesses to the firearm

stating to what they would have testified to."

Andrews presented transcripts of actual sworn under oath testimonies and

the affidavits of alleged testimony, by and through Rudine Williamson and James

Jackson to the Clerk of Court. Here, Andrews has made the requisite factual

showing in this case. The circumstantial evidence will sustain his claims of

ineffective assistance of pre-trial and trial counsel's proceedings. Additionally,

Andrews has provided substantial demonstration that the two exculpatory

testimonies would add facts to the firearm and alleged crime that would exculpate

him.

Andrews has provided a set forth who the persons were, to what they would

have testified to, the firearm and alleged crime, that their testimonies would have

been admissible and that they were available to testify at evidentiary hearings and

respectfully demands exoneration in this case.

Andrews' case is sufficient. As to counsel's alleged failure to investigate this

case and claims is also likely sufficient. Petitioner challenging the attorney's

investigation of the case, and would show the information that would have been

17

obtained from the investigation and assuming it admissibility in court, would have

produced a different result. U.S. ex. Rel. Cross v. DeRobert's, 811 F. 2d 1008,

1016 (7* Cir. 1987) (the focus of the Strickland inquiry must be on what

information would have produced a different result); the firearm would have

resulted, and how the outcome of the case would have been altered). State v.

Weinberg, 780 So. 2d 214 (5'h DCA 2001). Petitioner should not be held criminally

liable for actions which have broken the law, because the respondents acted in an

"inappropriate" and "unfair" manner. Respondent withheld exculpatory

agreements to the firearm and knowingly permitted false testimony by Robert

Smith, Martie Hedrick, Porsha Robinson, John Van Houted, Rudine Williamson,

and James Jackson. Jackson had planted "firearm" at the apartment. Respondents

intentional error and a breach ofprofessional ethics.

(A)Petitioner has a human personatinterest and legal right under consideration;

(B)Has personal interest which trial and pre-trial proceedings was affected by

the outcome;

(C)Is prejudiced and biased toward the petitioner information caused by Rudine

Williamson and James Jackson's wrongful acts. As will be set forth below, in

order to present a sufficient claim of ineffective assistance of counsel's

pursuant to Strickland, petitioner alleged and established both deficient

performance and prejudice. Ground 4 is sufficient and should be acquitted

18

with prejudice. Ground 1-5 should be acquitted with prejudice and summary

judgment granted for petitioner. The Supreme Court in Strickland v.

Washington, 466 U.S. 668 (1984), established a two part test for determining

whether a convicted person is entitled to relief on the ground that his counsel

rendered ineffective assistance.

The first prong of the Strickland test requires that the defendant demonstrate that

counsel's performance was deficient and "fell below an objective standard of

reasonableness." Strickland , 466 U.S. 688.

The test has nothing to do with what the best lawyers would have done.

Not is the test even what most good lawyers would have done.

Petitioner asks only whether some reasonable lawyer at the pre-trial and

trial counsel have acted, in the circumstances, as defense counsel's acted at court

proceedings.

Courts also should at the start presume effectiveness and should always

avoid second guessing with the benefit ofhindsight. White v. Singletary, 972 F. 2d

1218, 1220-21 (1 l th Cir. 1992) (Citation Omitted).

The second prong of the Strickland test requires the defendant to show that

the deficient performance prejudiced the defense. Id. At 687.

The prejudice prong of the test does not focus solely on mere outcome

determination. Lockhart v. Fretwell, at 844.

19

Rather, to establish prejudice a criminal defendant must show that counsel's

deficient representation rendered the result of the pre-trial and trial counsel's

fundamentally unfair and unreliable. Id. At (T-74-77).

Finally, in determining whether any deficient performance has prejudiced a

defendant, the reviewing court must consider the totality of the evidence before the

Judge or Jury. Fotopoulous v. Secretary, Department of Corrections, 21 Fla. L.

Weekly Fed. C399 (11th Cir. February 14, 2008).

Whether Rudine Williamson had been charged with tampering or not, this

testimony would have clearly showed common scheme and motive, as well the

entire context out ofwhich the criminal liable actions occurred.

In the instant case,...., there is no photographs to the firearm location.

("Evidence necessary to describe the manner in which a criminal offense took

place or how it came to light is generally admissible as mislaid evidence even

though it would be objectionable as prior bad act evidence because it is

"inextricably 'intertwined' with the underlying crime.")

Trial counsel's court proceedings performance was deficient for failing to

locate, subpoena and do a, call for Rudine Williamson, Porsha Roberson, James

Jackson, and Shahid Delwar, eyewitnesses identifications act, the persons who

purportedly confessed to the firearm of which petitioner was convicted. Petitioner

20

further asserts that based upon the circumstantial evidence. Andrews is entitled to

relief.

Respondents had no proof, eyewitness's identification, tape recording to the

crime and photo line-up records to the 911 call by Rudine Williamson's word.

Petitioner further asserts that based upon the circumstantial evidence of guilt

presented at pre-trial and trial proceedings, as set forth above under ground 1-5,

Andrews has provided, and showed, establish the deficient performance rendered

the result of his trial court proceedings fundamentally unfair and unreliable.

Moreover, petitioner is entitled to the effective assistance of trial counsel's and

appellate counsel Robert Friedman. Evitts v. Lucey, 469 U.S. 387 (1985); Barclay

v. Wainwright, 444 So. 2d 956 (Fla. 1984).

It is Rudine Williamson and James Jackson Exculpatory clause instead of

going to petitioner Robert Andrews trial to testify in proceedings.

The Respondent managed to work out an agreement with Williamson and

Jackson at his plea hearing; instead of proceeding to trial and come forward to the

evidentiary hearing of both parties agree to the respondents basic theory of the

case.

"The agreed upon Exculpatory Clause."

(A) A provision in the contract excusing one or both parties from the legal

consequences of his/her or their actions and negligence.

21

Of course, by agreeing to the respondents basic theory of the case there will be no

trial or evidentiary hearing testimony appearances, no confrontation by the accused

petitioner Robert Andrews or cross-examination.

Basically, it's no testifying because of the prior inconsistent statement with

respondents investigation when Rudine Williamson made conflicting statements

about the firearm. Williamson can not make any corrections to the incorrect

statements on respondents behalf, on the issues of the firearm by (ex parte)

petition.

Those are the basic facts of this case.

The denial of ground 1-5 by the trial judge was not reasonable. Andrews has

established both deficient performance and prejudice. The petitioner Robert

Andrews is entitled to relief. Petitioner alleged that prior inconsistent statements as

substantive evidence in the context of a motion to acquit the misleading hearsay

information arising under Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.190(b)(1)(c)(2)(4).

22

CONCLUSION

WHEREFORE, based on the above, petitioner request this court acquit the

instant petition for post-conviction relief with prejudice and grant summary

judgment for petitioner.
