Background

Christopher J. Mosley, proceeding without counsel, appealed from the Circuit Court for Duval County. The lower-court case number was 16-2010-CF-14162-A, and Circuit Judge Mark Jeffrey Borello presided below.

The State was represented on appeal by the Florida Attorney General’s Office. The appellate opinion does not identify the convictions, sentence, issues raised, procedural history, or arguments presented by either party.

The Court’s Holding

The Florida Fifth District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s judgment in a per curiam decision.

The court provided no analysis or explanation for its ruling. Judges Wallis, Lambert, and Eisnaugle concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The Fifth District affirmed the circuit court’s judgment.
  • The decision was a per curiam affirmance without a written explanation.
  • The opinion does not disclose the issues presented or the basis for affirmance.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the circuit court’s judgment in place but offers no substantive reasoning for attorneys to apply in other cases. Its significance is therefore principally case-specific.

The opinion was designated nonfinal until disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.330 or 9.331.
