Appeal rejected in murder of Jordan Davis

Michael Dunn took the case to the Supreme Court in December after the 1st District Court of Appeal ruled against him in the murder of 17-year-old Jordan Davis. The shooting came after Davis and three friends stopped at a Gate convenience store and Dunn pulled into an adjacent parking space. Ultimately, Dunn and Davis exchanged words, and Dunn fired repeatedly into the Dodge Durango that carried the teens. Dunn was convicted of first-degree murder while discharging a firearm, three counts of attempted second-degree murder while discharging a firearm and one count of shooting or throwing deadly missiles, according to the appeals-court ruling in September. At the appeals court, Dunn contended, in part, that he had received ineffective assistance of counsel during his trial.

Michael Dunn's appeal rejected

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - A state appeals court Monday rejected an appeal by a man convicted in the high-profile shooting death of a teen in a Jacksonville convenience-store parking lot. The Tallahassee-based appeals court rejected an earlier appeal by Dunn in 2016. As an example, Dunn argued that his lawyer was ineffective for failing to hire an expert to examine audio from the convenience stores surveillance video, but the appeals court rejected the argument. An accident reconstruction expert examined the sounds heard on the stores video and made no mention about another gun being fired before Dunn started shooting. Ultimately, Dunn and Davis exchanged words, and Dunn fired repeatedly into the Dodge Durango that carried the teens.
