Background
Deriel Head appealed a judgment from the Circuit Court for Duval County, where Circuit Judge Meredith Charbula presided. The underlying circuit-court case number was 2024-CF-006819-A.
The Fifth District Court of Appeal’s opinion does not describe the charge, facts, procedural history, arguments raised on appeal, or relief Head requested.
The Court’s Holding
The Fifth District affirmed the circuit court’s judgment in a per curiam decision. Chief Judge Jay and Judges Kilbane and MacIver concurred.
The court provided no reasoning or discussion of the issues. The decision therefore establishes only that the judgment under review was affirmed, subject to 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 circuit court’s judgment.
- The panel issued a per curiam affirmance without a written explanation.
- The opinion does not identify the appellate issues or disclose the underlying facts.
Why It Matters
The decision leaves the circuit court’s judgment in place but offers no legal analysis for attorneys to apply in other cases. Because the opinion does not reveal the issues presented or the panel’s reasoning, its significance is confined principally to the disposition of Head’s appeal.
