Background

Racetrac, Inc./Gallagher Bassett Services, Inc.-Racetrac appealed a decision from the Office of the Judges of Compensation Claims. The opinion identifies Iliana Forte as the compensation claims judge and lists February 6, 2025, as the date of accident.

The appellate opinion does not describe the underlying decision, the parties’ arguments, or the specific issues presented for review.

The Court’s Holding

The Florida First District Court of Appeal affirmed the decision under review.

The court issued a per curiam disposition consisting only of the word “AFFIRMED.” It provided no reasoning, legal analysis, or discussion of the underlying ruling.

Key Takeaways

  • The First District affirmed the decision from the Office of the Judges of Compensation Claims.
  • The three-judge panel consisted of Judges Ray, M.K. Thomas, and Long.
  • Because the court gave no explanation, the opinion does not identify the controlling issue or disclose the basis for affirmance.

Why It Matters

The disposition leaves the decision under review intact. Its practical significance beyond the parties is limited because the court did not provide facts, reasoning, or a statement of law.
