Background
Robert Bernard Muff, proceeding pro se, appealed from the Circuit Court for Orange County in two criminal cases bearing lower-tribunal numbers 1985-CF-000414 and 1985-CF-000413. Circuit Judge Leticia Marques entered the rulings under review.
The Sixth District consolidated the appeals under case numbers 6D2024-2333 and 6D2024-2335. The appeal proceeded pursuant to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.141(b)(2), and the State made no appearance.
The Court’s Holding
The Sixth District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s rulings.
The per curiam opinion provided no reasoning, factual analysis, or explanation of the legal grounds for affirmance. Judges Stargel, Nardella, and Smith concurred.
Key Takeaways
- The Sixth District affirmed the rulings in Muff’s two consolidated criminal cases.
- The appeal proceeded under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.141(b)(2).
- Because the court issued an unexplained per curiam affirmance, the opinion establishes no stated rationale beyond the result.
Why It Matters
The decision leaves the Orange County circuit court’s rulings in place. Its practical significance is limited by the absence of any discussion of the facts or legal issues presented.
