e.g. Tanner v. State · 585 So. 2d 1262 - Bush v. State
“Our familiar rule, of course, provides that whether an issue should be submitted to the jury is determined by whether there is evidence which, if believed by the jury, could result in resolution of the issue in favor of the party requesting the instruction. Conversely, only where the evidence is so one-sided that no reasonable juror could find for the requesting party on the issue at hand may the trial court deny an instruction on a material issue.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage
e.g. 701 So. 2d 1105 - McMillan v. City of Jackson · 548 So. 2d 385 - Avery v. State
