reversed a life sentence of a murderer
Line 17: Line 17:     
Judge Lagoa ruled against the City of [[Miami]] in an unwanted designation of a church as a local historical site, which typically harms the value of the property and impedes its uses.  ''City of Miami v. Diocese of Newton Melkite Church'', 176 So. 3d 388 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2015) (denying a petition by the City on procedural grounds).

Judge Lagoa reversed a life sentence when a jury had incorrectly concluded that the defendant had used a deadly weapon in a murder:
 +
{{cquote|Because the State presented no substantive evidence that Castillo used or had personal possession of a deadly weapon, i.e., a stick, during the commission of the crime, we find that the trial court erred in reclassifying Castillo's conviction from a felony of the first degree to a life felony pursuant to section 775.087(1)(a). Accordingly, we affirm Castillo's conviction, but reverse his sentence and remand for resentencing without reclassification under section 775.087(1). Castillo shall be present at the resentencing.

Affirmed in part; reversed in part and remanded for resentencing.}}
