District Court of Appeal of Florida February 2, 2001, No. 5D99-3494 (Showers v. State)

SHARP, W., J.

Showers appeals after a jury convicted him of aggravated battery with a deadly weapon, or causing great bodily harm.1 He argues that the trial court should have granted his motion for new trial based on new and material evidence, which was discovered after the trial had been completed. Because we find that the motion was untimely and successive, we affirm.
