Background
Leroy Garcin Harley appealed in a matter originating in the Circuit Court for Marion County, where Circuit Judge Barbara Kissner presided. The Fifth District’s opinion does not describe the underlying charges, procedural history, arguments, or ruling under review.
Harley was represented on appeal by the Public Defender’s Office and also appeared pro se. The State was represented by the Attorney General’s Office.
The Court’s Holding
The Fifth District Court of Appeal affirmed. Its per curiam opinion provides no reasoning or explanation for the disposition.
Judges Wallis, Edwards, and MacIver concurred. The opinion states that it is not final until disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.330 or 9.331.
Key Takeaways
- The Fifth District affirmed the matter under review.
- The court issued a per curiam affirmance without explaining its reasoning.
- The opinion supplies no facts or legal analysis from which a broader holding can be drawn.
Why It Matters
The decision resolves Harley’s appeal in the State’s favor at the Fifth District, subject to any timely and authorized post-decision motion.
Because the opinion contains only the disposition and no analysis, it does not articulate a rule of law or explain how the court evaluated any issue raised on appeal.
