Background

Shalaya Rahman, acting as personal representative of the estate of minor Z.R.B., appealed a ruling from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in Broward County. Circuit Judge Shari Africk-Olefson entered the ruling under lower-tribunal case number 062022CA018169AXXXCE.

The appellate opinion identifies DeAngelo Contracting Services, LLC, doing business as Aquagenix, among the appellees. Because the Fourth District issued only a one-word affirmance, the opinion does not describe the underlying claims, facts, challenged ruling, or arguments on appeal.

The Court’s Holding

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

The court provided no reasoning or legal analysis. Judges Levine, Klingensmith, and Lott concurred in the per curiam disposition.

Key Takeaways

  • The Fourth District affirmed the circuit court’s ruling.
  • The per curiam opinion does not disclose the facts, claims, appellate issues, or basis for affirmance.
  • The decision was not final until disposition of any timely filed motion for rehearing.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the circuit court’s ruling in place but supplies no written rationale for the result. Accordingly, the opinion itself offers no substantive guidance on the underlying dispute or the legal issues presented.
