Background

Neal Perez appealed a judgment of the County Court for Orange County in lower-tribunal case number 2023-CT-007421-A-O. County Judge Tina L. Caraballo entered the judgment under review.

The appellate opinion does not describe the underlying charge, the facts of the case, Perez’s arguments on appeal, or the county court’s reasoning.

The Court’s Holding

The Florida Sixth District Court of Appeal affirmed the county court’s judgment.

The court issued a per curiam affirmance without a written explanation. The opinion therefore provides no stated legal analysis or ruling on any particular issue beyond leaving the judgment intact.

Key Takeaways

  • The Sixth District affirmed the Orange County Court’s judgment against Neal Perez.
  • The three-judge panel issued the decision per curiam and unanimously concurred.
  • Because the opinion contains no reasoning or factual discussion, it does not identify the appellate issues or articulate a legal rule.

Why It Matters

The decision ends the appeal at this stage while leaving the county court’s judgment in place. Its practical significance is limited to the disposition because the appellate court did not explain its reasoning.

The opinion states that it is not final until the time to seek rehearing expires and any timely rehearing motion is resolved.
