Background

Michael Curtis, proceeding pro se, filed an original petition for a writ of certiorari against the Florida Commission on Offender Review in the Florida First District Court of Appeal.

The opinion does not describe the challenged decision, the petition’s factual allegations, or the legal arguments Curtis raised. The Commission made no appearance.

The Court’s Holding

The First District dismissed Curtis’s petition. The court issued the disposition per curiam, with Judges Ray, Bilbrey, and Neff concurring.

The opinion consists solely of the word “DISMISSED” and provides no explanation for the dismissal. It therefore does not identify the procedural or substantive ground supporting the disposition.

Key Takeaways

  • The court dismissed Curtis’s original certiorari proceeding.
  • The opinion states no factual or legal basis for the dismissal.
  • Judges Ray, Bilbrey, and Neff comprised the identified panel.

Why It Matters

The decision ends this certiorari proceeding at the First District, subject to disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.330 or 9.331. Because the court supplied no reasoning, the opinion offers no articulated rule or analysis for application in other cases.
