Wade Wilson’s Florida Appeal Remains Pending as Attorneys Await Supreme Court Ruling

Wade Wilson’s capital appeal remains pending before the Florida Supreme Court following oral arguments in February 2026.
The case, SC2024-1345, concerns Wilson’s convictions and death sentence. The Florida Supreme Court’s records confirm that the case is a death-penalty appeal and that the court maintains an online docket for filings and orders.
Oral arguments took place on February 5, 2026. The court explains that it does not normally issue decisions on the same day as oral arguments and that rulings can come months later.

Wilson’s attorneys have also raised consтιтutional issues involving Florida’s capital-sentencing process. Those arguments could potentially become relevant to a future federal appeal, but the U.S. Supreme Court would have to separately decide whether to review the case.
For now, the key point is that the Florida Supreme Court has not yet issued its final ruling in SC2024-1345. Until that happens, there is no Florida Supreme Court decision for Wilson to take to the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Florida Supreme Court continues to publish opinions and orders through its case-information system, meaning any future ruling or significant order should appear on the court’s official docket.
