Background
Melissa Boyd and Matthew Boyd appealed a ruling from the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County, where Judge Marc S. Makholm presided. The appellees were JC Baty, Laurie Baty, and First in Property Management.
The Second District’s opinion does not describe the underlying dispute, identify the type of ruling under review, or state the arguments raised on appeal. Counsel appeared for the Boyds and the Batys; First in Property Management made no appearance.
The Court’s Holding
The Florida Second District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s ruling. Judges Khouzam, Morris, and Guard concurred in the per curiam decision.
The court provided no reasoning, legal analysis, or discussion of the appellate issues. Accordingly, the opinion establishes only that the challenged ruling was affirmed and does not disclose the grounds for that result.
Key Takeaways
- The Second District affirmed the unidentified circuit-court ruling.
- The decision was issued per curiam with all three panel judges concurring.
- The opinion contains no facts, legal reasoning, or explanation of the issues presented.
Why It Matters
The decision resolves this appeal in favor of the appellees but offers no written guidance on the substantive law or the court’s reasoning. Attorneys therefore cannot rely on the opinion itself for a stated rule or rationale beyond its disposition of the appeal.
