Background

Ervin Donnell Jackson appealed from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in Broward County, where Judge Michael Usan presided over lower-court case number 062021CF003353A88810.

The Fourth District’s opinion does not describe the underlying facts, identify the convictions or sentences at issue, or state the arguments Jackson raised on appeal.

The Court’s Holding

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

The court provided no written reasoning or discussion of the appellate issues. Chief Judge Gerber and Judges Shaw and Lott concurred in the result.

Key Takeaways

  • The Fourth District affirmed the circuit court’s decision.
  • The disposition was per curiam and contained no explanation of the court’s reasoning.
  • The opinion was not final until disposition of any timely filed motion for rehearing.

Why It Matters

The affirmance leaves the circuit court’s ruling in place. Because the appellate court did not identify the issues or provide legal analysis, the opinion offers no articulated rationale for attorneys to apply in other cases.
