Background

Daniel Cheon appealed from a decision of the County Court for Okaloosa County, where County Judge John K. Reed presided. Shane C. Martin was the appellee.

Both parties appeared pro se on appeal. The opinion does not describe the underlying dispute, the county court’s ruling, the issues raised, or the parties’ arguments.

The Court’s Holding

The Florida First District Court of Appeal affirmed the county court’s decision in a per curiam opinion.

The court provided no reasoning or discussion of the merits. Judges Roberts, Rowe, and Kelsey concurred in the disposition.

Key Takeaways

  • The First District affirmed the county court’s decision.
  • The decision was issued per curiam by a three-judge panel consisting of Judges Roberts, Rowe, and Kelsey.
  • The opinion establishes no stated rationale because it contains only the disposition.

Why It Matters

The ruling leaves the county court’s decision in place. Because the appellate court supplied no facts, legal analysis, or explanation, the opinion offers no articulated rule or reasoning for attorneys to apply in other cases.
