Background

Thai Nguyen appealed from a decision of the Circuit Court for Lee County in lower-tribunal case number 25-DR-035154. Circuit Judge John S. Carlin presided below.

Nguyen and appellee Khanh M. Tran each appeared without counsel. The appellate court’s opinion does not describe the dispute, the circuit court’s ruling, or the arguments raised on appeal.

The Court’s Holding

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

The court issued a per curiam affirmance without a written explanation. Chief Judge Traver and Judges Stargel and Pratt concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The circuit court’s ruling remains in effect.
  • The appellate court provided no reasoning or discussion of the issues presented.
  • Both parties represented themselves in the appeal.

Why It Matters

The decision resolves this appeal in Tran’s favor but announces no articulated rule of law. Because the court did not explain its reasoning, the opinion offers no guidance about the underlying dispute or the legal grounds supporting affirmance.
