Arianne Alexys Myles v. Florida
DueProcess Punishment
1. What were the Framers' of the Florida Constitution trying to do when they wrote Article I, Section 17 that prohibits "indefinite imprisonment "?
2. Is being placed in prison for the rest of one's life, with an unlimited release date, constitutionally forbidden by the Florida Constitution Article I, Section 17 which prohibits "indefinite imprisonment "?
3. Does "indefinite imprisonment " mean being placed in prison for the rest of one's life, and because the Rule of Lenity and Plain Language has to be used when determining the correct interpretation, is not the court mandated to use the definition that favors the accused?
4. State Constitutions are derived from the United States Constitution; does this not in turn violate the United States Constitution when a state's statute violates a provision or prohibition within the State's constitution?
5. When taking a judicial oath, does not every judiciary swear or affirm that they will support the Constitution of the United States and of Florida (or whatever state they represent)?
6. What can be done to correct the indefinite imprisonment sentence of life, that is unconstitutional by the Florida Constitution Article I, Section 17 that forbids "indefinite Imprisonment "?
Whether a life sentence without a definite release date violates the Florida Constitution's prohibition on 'indefinite imprisonment'
