Background
J.F., identified in the caption as “the Mother,” appealed from an order of the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County. Circuit Judge Carlos Guzman entered the order under review.
The Department of Children and Families and the Guardian ad Litem appeared as appellees. The appellate opinion does not describe the underlying proceeding, the challenged order, the facts, or the arguments raised on appeal.
The Court’s Holding
The Florida Third District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s ruling in a per curiam decision.
The court provided no written reasoning, legal analysis, or statement of the issues decided. The opinion therefore establishes only that the lower court’s ruling was affirmed.
Key Takeaways
- The Third District affirmed the order under review.
- The decision was issued per curiam by a three-judge panel.
- The opinion does not identify the underlying issues or explain the basis for affirmance.
Why It Matters
The decision leaves the circuit court’s ruling in place. Because the opinion contains no reasoning or factual discussion, it offers no articulated rule or analysis for attorneys to apply in other cases.
