Background

Shane Clinton McKinney appealed a judgment of the Circuit Court for Bay County. Circuit Judge Brantley Clark, Jr., presided over the matter below.

The appellate opinion does not describe the underlying facts, the charges or judgment at issue, McKinney’s arguments, or the State’s response.

The Court’s Holding

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

The court issued a per curiam decision consisting only of the disposition and provided no reasoning or discussion of the issues presented. Judges Bilbrey, Treadwell, and Neff concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The First District affirmed the judgment of the Bay County Circuit Court.
  • The court did not issue a written explanation for its decision.
  • The opinion does not disclose the underlying facts, appellate claims, or legal analysis.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the circuit court’s judgment in place but offers no written reasoning for attorneys to apply in other cases. Its significance is therefore limited to the disposition of McKinney’s appeal.
