Background

Felice John Veach appealed from a decision of the Circuit Court for Escambia County, where Judge John F. Simon, Jr. presided. Veach represented himself on appeal.

The State of Florida was represented by Attorney General James Uthmeier and Assistant Attorney General Adam B. Wilson. The appellate opinion does not describe the underlying dispute, the trial court’s ruling, or the issues Veach raised.

The Court’s Holding

The Florida First District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s decision. Chief Judge Osterhaus and Judges Winokur and Treadwell concurred in the per curiam disposition.

The court provided no reasoning or discussion of the facts, arguments, or governing law. The opinion therefore establishes only that the judgment or order under review was affirmed.

Key Takeaways

  • The First District affirmed the circuit court’s decision.
  • The court issued a per curiam affirmance without explaining its reasoning.
  • The opinion does not identify the underlying issues or provide a legal analysis.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the circuit court’s ruling in place but offers no written guidance about the law or the basis for affirmance. Its significance is therefore limited to the disposition of Veach’s appeal.
