Abstract: Florida and Alabama are presently the only two states that permit juries to recommend the death penalty by a non-unanimous vote. Although the U.S. Supreme Court has addressed numerous facets regarding the circumstances under which the death penalty can and cannot be imposed, it has not yet directly addressed the question of jury unanimity being a requirement
