He also petitions this Court for a writ of habe-as corpus. The State cross-appeals, challenging the trial court’s order granting Lowe a new penalty phase. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 3(b)(1), (9), Fla. Const. For the reasons explained below, we affirm the trial court’s order and deny habeas relief.
