Background
Matthew Manuel Brown, proceeding pro se, appealed from the Circuit Court for Seminole County in a proceeding identified as a Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 appeal. Circuit Judge Jessica Recksiedler presided below.
The State of Florida appeared through the Attorney General’s Office. The appellate opinion provides no facts about Brown’s conviction, the claims raised under Rule 3.850, or the specific ruling entered by the circuit court.
The Court’s Holding
The Florida Fifth District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s disposition. Judges Makar, Edwards, and Eisnaugle concurred in the per curiam decision.
The court supplied no reasoning, legal analysis, or description of the issues presented. The opinion therefore establishes only that the judgment or order before the court was affirmed.
Key Takeaways
- The Fifth District affirmed in Brown’s Rule 3.850 appeal.
- The decision was issued per curiam by Judges Makar, Edwards, and Eisnaugle.
- The opinion does not disclose the underlying claims, the circuit court’s specific ruling, or the appellate court’s reasoning.
Why It Matters
The decision ends the appeal with an affirmance, subject to disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.330 or 9.331. Because the court issued no written analysis, the opinion offers no articulated rule or reasoning for application in other cases.
