Background

Michael P. Colosi, proceeding in the name of the State of Florida and representing himself, appealed from a decision of the Circuit Court for Collier County. The appellees were Zack Stamp, as chairperson of the Flow Way Community Development District, and Dean Britt, as chairperson of the Quarry Community Development District.

The Sixth District’s disposition does not describe the underlying dispute, the relief Colosi sought, the circuit court’s ruling, or the arguments raised on appeal.

The Court’s Holding

The Sixth District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s decision in a per curiam disposition.

The court provided no reasoning, addressed no legal issue expressly, and announced no rule of law. Judges White, Mize, and Gannam concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The circuit court’s decision remains in place.
  • The appellate court affirmed without a written explanation.
  • The disposition does not disclose the facts, legal arguments, or basis for affirmance.

Why It Matters

The decision resolves this appeal in favor of the community development district chairpersons, but its lack of reasoning limits its usefulness for evaluating similar disputes or identifying a broader legal principle.
