Description
This cause is before the Court on a petition for writ of habeas corpus. Petitioner Ed Clifford Thomas is a state prisoner under sentence of death. He sought a stay of execution of sentence previously scheduled for April 15, 1986. On April 11, 1986, this Court granted a stay of execution to permit evaluation of the petition. We now deny the petition for habeas corpus. The previously entered stay of execution is vacated. Petitioner was convicted of two counts of first-degree murder. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for the first murder he committed and to death for the second murder. On appeal, this Court affirmed the convictions and the sentence of death. Thomas v. State, 456 So.2d 454 (Fla. 1984). Questions pertaining to petitioner's guilt of the two murders, the essential fairness of the trial, and the propriety of the sentence of death imposed for the second murder were finally settled by this Court's decision on that appeal and are not now open to reconsideration.
