Johnson v. State — Florida appellate court affirmed without a written explanation

Background

Randy Michael Johnson appealed from a judgment of the Circuit Court for DeSoto County, where Judge Guy A. Flowers presided.

The appellate opinion does not describe the underlying charges, facts, procedural history, or arguments raised on appeal.

The Court’s Holding

The Florida Second District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s judgment.

The court issued a per curiam affirmance without a written explanation. Judges Silberman, LaRose, and Guard concurred.

Key Takeaways

• The Second District affirmed the circuit court’s judgment.
• The court provided no reasoning or discussion of the issues presented.
• The opinion identifies Judges Silberman, LaRose, and Guard as the participating panel.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the circuit court’s judgment in place. Because the appellate court did not explain its reasoning or identify the issues raised, the opinion offers no substantive guidance beyond the result in Johnson’s appeal.
