Background
Damien D. Freeman, proceeding pro se, appealed from the Circuit Court for Polk County. Circuit Judge Michelle O. Pincket entered the order under review in lower-tribunal case number 2012-CF-010669.
The appeal proceeded under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.141(b)(2). The opinion does not describe Freeman’s underlying claims, the circuit court’s reasoning, or the relief he sought.
The Court’s Holding
The Florida Sixth District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s ruling.
The per curiam opinion consists only of the word “AFFIRMED” and provides no legal analysis or explanation. Judges Wozniak, Smith, and Kamoutsas concurred.
Key Takeaways
- The Sixth District affirmed the Polk County Circuit Court’s ruling.
- The court issued a per curiam affirmance without a written explanation.
- The opinion establishes no express legal rationale beyond the disposition of this appeal.
Why It Matters
The decision leaves the circuit court’s ruling intact, but its lack of reasoning limits its usefulness as guidance on any substantive or procedural issue that may have been raised.
