Background
Robert L. Caleb appealed from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, where Judge Milton Hirsch presided over lower-tribunal case number F20-11164. The appellate opinion does not identify the specific judgment, order, or other ruling under review.
Caleb represented himself on appeal. The State was represented by Attorney General James Uthmeier and Senior Assistant Attorney General Ivy R. Ginsberg.
The Court’s Holding
The Florida Third District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court without a written explanation of its reasoning. The decision was issued per curiam by Judges Thomas Logue, Norma S. Lindsey, and Monica Gordo.
Because the opinion consists solely of the disposition “Affirmed,” it does not describe Caleb’s arguments, state the governing legal standard, or specify the basis for rejecting the appeal.
Key Takeaways
- The Third District affirmed the unidentified circuit-court ruling under review.
- The court issued a per curiam affirmance without explaining its reasoning.
- The opinion does not identify the issues raised on appeal or the nature of the underlying ruling.
Why It Matters
The decision leaves the circuit court’s ruling in place but provides no written legal analysis for attorneys to apply in other cases. Its significance is therefore limited to the disposition of Caleb’s appeal.
