Background
Charles M. Ray, proceeding pro se, appealed from a decision of the Circuit Court for Orange County in lower-tribunal case number 2008-CF-014423-A-O. Circuit Judge Amy J. Carter entered the decision under review.
The opinion does not describe Ray’s conviction, the ruling challenged on appeal, the arguments raised by the parties, or the relevant facts and procedural history.
The Court’s Holding
The Florida Sixth District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s decision. Judges Wozniak, Smith, and Brownlee concurred in the per curiam disposition.
The court provided no written reasoning or discussion of the issues. Accordingly, the opinion establishes only that the judgment or order under review was affirmed and does not identify any broader legal holding.
Key Takeaways
- The Sixth District affirmed the Orange County circuit court’s decision.
- The court issued a per curiam affirmance without explaining its reasoning.
- The opinion supplies no facts, legal analysis, or description of the appellate claims.
Why It Matters
The decision ends this stage of Ray’s appeal in the Sixth District by leaving the circuit court’s ruling in place. Because the court gave no explanation, the opinion offers no substantive guidance on criminal law or appellate procedure beyond its case-specific disposition.
