Background

Anthony Lee Mansfield appealed from the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County, where Judge Michelle D. Sisco presided. The appeal proceeded under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.130.

The Second District’s opinion does not describe the underlying facts, the order being reviewed, the parties’ arguments, or the legal issues presented.

The Court’s Holding

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

The court issued a per curiam disposition without analysis or an explanation of its reasoning. Judges Northcutt, Black, and Labrit concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The circuit court’s decision remains in effect.
  • The appellate court provided no factual discussion or legal analysis.
  • The opinion identifies Judges Northcutt, Black, and Labrit as the participating panel members.

Why It Matters

The decision resolves Mansfield’s appeal in the State’s favor but supplies no written reasoning that attorneys can apply to other cases. The opinion also does not identify the underlying dispute or the specific ruling affirmed.
