Background

Rayburn Scott appealed a decision of the Florida Commission on Human Relations involving Service Corporation International Headquarters. Scott represented himself on appeal, while Daniel J. Butler represented the appellee.

The First District’s opinion does not describe Scott’s underlying allegations, the Commission’s ruling, or the arguments presented on appeal.

The Court’s Holding

The First District Court of Appeal affirmed the Commission’s decision in a per curiam disposition.

The court provided no reasoning or discussion of the merits. Chief Judge Osterhaus and Judges Treadwell and Neff concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The Florida Commission on Human Relations’ decision remains in place.
  • The court affirmed without a written explanation of its reasoning.
  • The opinion does not establish case-specific facts or explain the legal grounds supporting affirmance.

Why It Matters

The decision ends this stage of Scott’s challenge while leaving the Commission’s ruling undisturbed. Because the court issued only a per curiam affirmance, the opinion offers no substantive guidance about the underlying dispute or the legal standards applied.
