Background

Victor Marquice Perez appealed from a matter in the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County before Judge Michelle Sisco. The opinion does not identify the particular judgment or order under review or describe the underlying facts.

Perez was represented on appeal by the Public Defender’s Office, and the State was represented by the Attorney General’s Office. The appellate court issued a brief per curiam opinion without discussing the parties’ arguments.

The Court’s Holding

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

The court provided no reasoning or analysis and did not identify the specific grounds raised on appeal. Chief Judge Lucas and Judges Khouzam and Morris concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The Second District affirmed the circuit court’s ruling.
  • The per curiam opinion contains no factual discussion or legal analysis.
  • The opinion does not specify the judgment or order that Perez challenged.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the circuit court’s ruling in place but offers no explanation of the legal basis for affirmance. Because the opinion does not describe the underlying dispute or address any legal issue, it provides no articulated rule or reasoning for attorneys to apply in other cases.
