Background

Wilmar Marroquinmendez appealed from a decision of the Circuit Court for Leon County, where Circuit Judge John C. Cooper presided. The Florida Department of Corrections was the appellee.

Marroquinmendez represented himself on appeal. The opinion does not describe his claims, the nature of the circuit court’s decision, or the arguments presented by either side.

The Court’s Holding

The First District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s decision.

The court issued a per curiam affirmance without explaining its reasoning. Chief Judge Osterhaus and Judges Lewis and Ray concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The circuit court’s decision remains in place.
  • The appellate court provided no factual discussion or legal analysis.
  • The opinion does not disclose the issues raised on appeal or the basis for affirmance.

Why It Matters

The decision resolves this appeal in favor of the Florida Department of Corrections but offers no written guidance on the underlying legal questions. Its significance is therefore limited to the disposition reflected in the opinion.
