Attorneys and Law Firms
Carey Haughwout, Public Defender, and Erika Follmer,
Assistant Public Defender, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Ashley Moody, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Rachael
Kaiman, Assistant Attorney General, West Palm Beach, for
appellee.
*816 We affirm appellant's convictions and sentences
without discussion. See Guzman v. State, 350 So. 3d 72
(Fla. 4th DCA 2022). However, we remand for correction
of scrivener's errors in the scoresheet and judgment. The
scoresheet lists section 784.045(1)(a)2., Florida Statutes, as
the primary offense and the judgment states that appellant was
convicted under section 784.045(1)(a)1., Florida Statutes.
Both appellant and the state agree that the scoresheet
and judgment should cite section 784.045(1)(a) without
referencing any specific subparagraph because the jury did
not make a finding as to whether the aggravated battery was
based on great bodily harm or the use of a deadly weapon.
Accordingly, on remand, the trial court shall make these
corrections.
Affirmed and remanded with instructions.
Gross, Conner and Forst, JJ., concur.

ARGUMENT
POINT I
CUNNINGHAM WAS ENTITLED TO A TWELVE-PERSON
JURY UNDER THE SIXTH AND FOURTEENTH
AMENDMENTS, AND SHE DID NOT WAIVE THAT RIGHT
Cunningham, charged with two felonies each punishable by up
to fifteen-years imprisonment, was convicted by a jury comprised of
a mere six people. R. 155, 234; T. 152, 461-62. She argues that the
Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments guarantee the right to a twelveperson jury when the defendant is charged with a felony.
Cunningham acknowledges that this Court recently rejected
this argument in Guzman v. State, No. 4D22-0148, 477 Fla. L. Weekly
D___ (Fla. 4th DCA Oct. 26, 2022). At that time of this writing, the
Guzman decision is not yet final and the window is still open in that
case for the appellant to move for rehearing and petition this Court’s
decision to the Florida Supreme Court. If this Court affirms in
Cunningham’s case, she requests that this Court cite to Guzman.
The standard of review of constitutional claims is de novo. See
A.B. v. Florida Dept. of Children & Family Services, 901 So. 2d 324,
326 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005).
17
Although the Supreme Court held in Williams v. Florida, 399
U.S. 78, 86 (1970), that juries as small as six were constitutionally
permissible, Williams is impossible to square with the Supreme
Court’s ruling in Ramos v. Louisiana, 140 S. Ct. 1390 (2020), which
concluded that the Sixth Amendment’s “trial by an impartial jury”
requirement encompasses what the term “meant at the Sixth
Amendment’s adoption,” id. at 1395.
Prior to 1970, subjecting Cunningham to a trial with only six
jurors would have indisputably violated her Sixth Amendment rights.
As the Ramos Court observed, even Blackstone recognized that under
the common law, “no person could be found guilty of a serious crime
unless ‘the truth of every accusation … should … be confirmed by
the unanimous suffrage of twelve of his equals and neighbors[.]” 140
S. Ct. at 1395. “A ‘verdict, taken from eleven, was no verdict’ at all.”
Id.
After the Sixth Amendment was enacted, a bevy of state
courts—ranging from Alabama to Missouri to New Hampshire—
interpreted it to require a twelve-person jury. See Miller, Comment,
Six of One Is Not A Dozen of the Other, 146 U. Pa. L. Rev. 621, 643
n.133 (1998) (collecting cases from the late 1700s to the 1860s). In
18
1898, the U.S. Supreme Court added its voice to the chorus, noting
that the Sixth Amendment protects a defendant’s right to be tried by
a twelve-person jury. Thompson v. Utah, 170 U.S. 343, 349-350
(1898). As the Thompson Court explained, since the time of Magna
Carta, the word “jury” had been understood to mean a body of twelve
people. Id. Given that understanding had been accepted since 1215,
the Court reasoned, “[i]t must” have been “that the word ‘jury’” in the
Sixth Amendment was “placed in the constitution of the United
States with reference to [that] meaning affixed to [it].” Id. at 350.
The Supreme Court continued to cite the basic principle that
the Sixth Amendment requires a twelve-person jury in criminal cases
for seventy more years. For example, in 1900, the Court explained
that “there [could] be no doubt” “[t]hat a jury composed, as at
common law, of twelve jurors was intended by the Sixth Amendment
to the Federal Constitution.” Maxwell v. Dow, 176 U.S. 581, 586
(1900). Thirty years later, the Court reiterated that it was “not open
to question” that “the phrase ‘trial by jury’” in the Constitution
incorporated juries’ “essential elements” as “they were recognized in
this country and England,” including the requirement that they
“consist of twelve men, neither more nor less.” Patton v. United States,
19
281 U.S. 276, 288 (1930). And as recently as 1968, the Court
remarked that “by the time our Constitution was written, jury trial in
criminal cases had been in existence for several centuries and carried
impressive credentials traced by many to Magna Carta,” such as the
necessary inclusion of twelve members. Duncan v. Louisiana, 391
U.S. 145, 151-152 (1968).1
In 1970, however, the Williams Court overruled this line of
precedent in a decision that Justice Harlan described as “stripping
off the livery of history from the jury trial” and ignoring both “the
intent of the Framers” and the Court’s long held understanding that
constitutional “provisions are framed in the language of the English
common law [] and … read in the light of its history.” Baldwin v. New
York, 399 U.S. 117, 122-123 (1970) (citation omitted) (Harlan, J.,
concurring in the result in Williams). Indeed, Williams recognized that
the Framers “may well” have had “the usual expectation” in drafting
1 See also, e.g., Capital Traction Co v. Hof, 174 U.S. 1, 13 (1899)
(“‘Trial by jury,’ in the primary and usual sense of the term at the
common law and in the American constitutions, is not merely a trial
by a jury of 12 men” but also contains other requirements); Rassmussen v. United States, 197 U.S. 516, 529 (1905) (“The constitutional
requirement that ‘the trial of all crimes, except in cases of impeachment, shall be by jury,’ means, as this court has adjudged, a trial by
the historical, common-law jury of twelve persons”).
20
the Sixth Amendment “that the jury would consist of 12” members.
Williams, 399 U.S. at 98-99. But Williams concluded that such
“purely historical considerations” were not dispositive. Id. at 99.
Rather, the Court focused on the “function” that the jury plays in the
Constitution, concluding that the “essential feature” of a jury is it
leaves justice to the “commonsense judgment of a group of laymen”
and thus allows “guilt or innocence” to be determined via “community
participation and [with] shared responsibility.” Id. at 100-01.
According to the Williams Court, both “currently available evidence
[and] theory” suggested that function could just as easily be
performed with six jurors as with twelve. Id. at 101-102 & n.48; cf.
Burch v. Louisiana, 441 U.S. 130, 137 (1979) (acknowledging that
Williams and its progeny “departed from the strictly historical
requirements of jury trial”).
Williams’s ruling that the Sixth Amendment (as incorporated to
the States by the Fourteenth) permits a six-person jury cannot stand
in light of Ramos. There, the Supreme Court held that the Sixth
Amendment requires a unanimous verdict to convict a defendant of
a serious offense. In reaching that conclusion, the Ramos Court
overturned Apodaca v. Oregon, 406 U.S. 404 (1972), a decision that
21
it faulted for “subject[ing] the ancient guarantee of a unanimous jury
verdict to its own functionalist assessment.” 140 S. Ct. at 1401-1402.
That reasoning undermines Williams as well. Ramos rejected
the same kind of “cost-benefit analysis” the Court undertook in
Williams, observing that it is not the Court’s role to “distinguish
between the historic features of common law jury trials that (we
think) serve ‘important enough functions to migrate silently into the
Sixth Amendment and those that don’t.’” 140 S. Ct. at 1400-01.
Ultimately, the Ramos Court explained, the question is whether “at
the time of the Sixth Amendment’s adoption, the right to trial by jury
included” the particular feature at issue. Id. at 1402. As the history
summarized above establishes, there can be no serious doubt that
the common understanding of the jury trial during the Revolutionary
War era was that twelve jurors were required—“a verdict, taken from
eleven, was no verdict at all.” See id. at 1395 (quotation marks
omitted).
Even setting aside Williams’s now-disfavored functionalist logic,
its ruling suffered from another significant flaw: it was based on
research that was out of date shortly after the opinion issued.
Specifically, the Williams Court “f[ou]nd little reason to think” that
22
the goals of the jury guarantee—including, among others, “to provide
a fair possibility for obtaining a representative[] cross-section of the
community”—“are in any meaningful sense less likely to be achieved
when the jury numbers six, than when it numbers 12.” 399 U.S. at
100. The Court theorized that “in practice the difference between the
12-man and the six-man jury in terms of the cross-section of the
community represented seems likely to be negligible.” Id. at 102.
In the time since Williams, that determination has proven
incorrect. Indeed, the Court acknowledged as much just eight years
later in Ballew v. Georgia, 435 U.S. 223 (1978), when it concluded
that the Sixth Amendment barred the use of a five-person jury.
Although Ballew did not overturn Williams, the Ballew Court
observed that empirical studies conducted in the handful of
intervening years highlighted several problems with Williams’
assumptions. For example, Ballew noted that more recent research
showed that (1) “smaller juries are less likely to foster effective group
deliberation,” id. at 233, (2) smaller juries may be less accurate and
cause “increasing inconsistency” in verdict results, id. at 234, (3) the
chance
for
hung
juries
decreases
with
smaller
juries,
disproportionally harming the defendant, id. at 236; and (4)
23
decreasing jury sizes “foretell[] problems … for the representation of
minority groups in the community,” undermining a jury’s likelihood
of being “truly representative of the community,” id. at 236-37.
Moreover, the Ballew Court “admit[ted]” that it “d[id] not pretend to
discern a clear line between six members and five,” effectively
acknowledging that the studies it relied on also cast doubt on the
effectiveness of the six-member jury. Id. at 239; see also id. at 24546 (Powell, J.) (agreeing that five-member juries are unconstitutional,
while acknowledging that “the line between five- and six-member
juries is difficult to justify”).
Post-Ballew
research
has
further
undermined
Williams.
Current empirical evidence indicates that “reducing jury size
inevitably has a drastic effect on the representation of minority group
members on the jury.” Diamond et al., Achieving Diversity on the
Jury: Jury Size and the Peremptory Challenge, 6 J. of Empirical Legal
Stud. 425, 427 (Sept. 2009); see also Higginbotham et al., Better by
the Dozen: Bringing Back the Twelve-Person Civil Jury, 104
Judicature 47, 52 (Summer 2020) (“Larger juries are also more
inclusive and more representative of the community. … In reality,
cutting the size of the jury dramatically increases the chance of
24
excluding minorities.”). Because “the 12-member jury produces
significantly greater heterogeneity than does the six-member jury,”
Diamond et al., Achieving Diversity on the Jury, supra, at 449, it
increases
“the
opportunity
for
meaningful
and
appropriate
representation” and helps ensure that juries “represent adequately a
cross-section of the community.” Ballew, 435 U.S. at 237.
Other important considerations also weigh in favor of the
twelve-member jury. For instance, studies indicate that twelvemember juries deliberate longer, recall evidence better, and rely less
on irrelevant factors during deliberation. See Smith & Saks, The Case
for Overturning Williams v. Florida and the Six-Person Jury, 60 Fla. L.
Rev. 441, 465 (2008). Minority views are also more likely to be
thoroughly expressed in a larger jury, as “having a large minority
helps
make
the
minority
subgroup
more
influential,”
and,
unsurprisingly, “the chance of minority members having allies is
greater on a twelve-person jury.” Id. at 466. Finally, larger juries
deliver more predictable results. In the civil context, for example,
“[s]ix-person juries are four times more likely to return extremely
high or low damage awards compared to the average.” Higginbotham
et al., Better by the Dozen, supra, at 52.
25
Cunningham recognizes that the state constitution provides:
SECTION 22. Trial by jury.—The right of trial by jury shall
be secure to all and remain inviolate. The qualifications
and the number of jurors, not fewer than six, shall be fixed
by law.
Art. I, § 22, Fla. Const. And she recognizes that section 913.10,
Florida Statutes, provides for six jurors except in capital cases. See
also Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.270.
But Florida’s provision for a jury of six stems from the dawn of
the Jim Crow era, one month after federal troops were withdrawn
from the state. The historical background is as follows:
In 1875, the Jury Clause of the 1868 constitution was amended
to provide that the number of jurors “for the trial of causes in any
court may be fixed by law.” See Florida Fertilizer & Mfg. Co. v. Boswell,
34 So. 241, 241 (Fla. 1903).
The common law rule of a jury of twelve was still kept in Florida
while federal troops remained in the state. There was no provision for
a jury of less than twelve until the Legislature enacted a provision
specifying a jury of six in Chapter 3010, section 6. See Gibson v.
State, 16 Fla. 291, 297-98 (1877) (quoting and discussing Ch. 3010,
26
§ 6, Laws of Fla. (1877)); Florida Fertilizer, 34 So. at 241 (noting that
previously all juries had twelve members).
The Legislature enacted chapter 3010 with the jury-of-six
provision on February 17, 1877. Gibson, 16 Fla. 294. This was less
than a month after the last federal troops were withdrawn from
Florida in January 1877. See Jerrell H. Shofner, Reconstruction and
Renewal, 1865-1877, in The History of Florida 273 (Michael Gannon,
ed., first paperback edition 2018) (“there were [no federal troops” in
Florida after 23 January 1877”).
The jury-of-six thus first saw light at the birth of the Jim Crow
era as former Confederates regained power in southern states and
state prosecutors made a concerted effort to prevent blacks from
serving on jurors.
On its face the 1868 constitution extended the franchise to
black men. But the historical context shows that that it was part of
the overall resistance to Reconstruction efforts to protect the rights
of black citizens. The constitution was the product of a remarkable
series of events including a coup in which leaders of the white
southern (or native) faction took possession of the assembly hall in
the middle of the night, excluding Radical Republican delegates from
27
the proceedings. See Richard L. Hume, Membership of the Florida
Constitutional Convention of 1868: A Case Study of Republican
Factionalism in the Reconstruction South, 51 Fla. Hist. Q. 1, 5-6
(1972); Shofner at 266. A reconciliation was effected as the “outside”
whites “united with the majority of the body’s native whites to frame
a constitution designed to continue white dominance.” Hume at 15.
The racist purpose of the resulting constitution was spelled out
by Harrison Reed, a leader of the prevailing faction and the first
governor elected under the 1868 constitution, who wrote to Senator
Yulee that the new constitution was constructed to bar blacks from
legislative office:
Under our Constitution the Judiciary & State officers will
be appointed & the apportionment will prevent a negro
legislature.
Hume at 15-16. See also Shofner at 266.
In Ramos, Justice Gorsuch noted that the Louisiana nonunanimity rule arose from Jim Crow era efforts to enforce white
supremacy. 140 S.Ct. at 1394; see also id. at 1417 (Kavanaugh, J.,
concurring) (non-unanimity was enacted “as one pillar of a
comprehensive and brutal program of racist Jim Crow measures
against African-Americans, especially in voting and jury service.”).
28
The history of Florida’s jury of six arises from the same historical
context.
In view of the foregoing, a jury of six at a criminal trial for a
crime punishable by up to life imprisonment is unconstitutional
under the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments of the United States
Constitution.
Finally, Cunningham did not waive her Sixth Amendment right
to a twelve-person jury. A defendant may waive his or her right to a
constitutional jury, but the “express and intelligent consent of the
defendant” is required. Patton, 281 U.S. at 312. See also Johnson v.
State, 994 So. 2d 960, 964 (Fla. 2008) (“[T]he State contends that
Johnson waived appellate review of this claim when he failed to
request a jury trial or object to the bench trial during the second
phase of the felony DUI proceeding. We disagree. . . . Johnson’s
general silence . . . did not constitute a valid waiver.”).
This Court should reverse the judgment and sentence and
remand for a new trial with a twelve-person jury, as required by the
Sixth
and
Fourteenth
Amendments
Constitution.

Cunningham understands that this Court has disagreed with
this argument in its recent decision in Guzman, 477 Fla. L. Weekly
D___. However, Cunningham maintains her argument that her Sixth
and Fourteenth Amendment Rights were violated. This Court’s
decision in Guzman is not yet final, and the defendant in that case
may still move for rehearing and petition that decision to the Florida
Supreme Court. Cunningham requests that if this Court affirms, that
this Court cite to Guzman, such that this case would be in the
Guzman appellate pipeline and allow Cunningham to seek further
review of her convictions and sentences. See Jollie v. State, 405 So.
