Background
D. George Sweigert brought three consolidated appeals from the Circuit Court for the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit in Palm Beach County. Circuit Judge Paul A. Damico presided over the underlying case, docketed as No. 502025DR009653XXXASB.
Sweigert and appellee Mark A. Goodman each appeared without counsel. The appellate opinion does not describe the underlying dispute, the orders under review, the arguments raised, or the relevant facts.
The Court’s Holding
The Fourth District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court in a per curiam decision. Chief Judge Gerber and Judges Ciklin and Levine concurred.
The court provided no reasoning or discussion of the merits. The opinion stated that it would not become final until disposition of any timely filed motion for rehearing.
Key Takeaways
- The Fourth District affirmed the circuit court’s rulings in three consolidated appeals.
- The decision was unanimous and issued per curiam without an explanatory opinion.
- The opinion establishes no stated rule of law and identifies neither the underlying issues nor the basis for affirmance.
Why It Matters
The decision ends the consolidated appeals at the panel-decision stage, subject to any timely motion for rehearing. Because the court supplied no reasoning, the opinion offers no guidance about the underlying dispute or the legal grounds supporting the result.
