Background

Kardazia Vontaya Savage appealed from proceedings in the Circuit Court for Marion County before Judge Timothy Thomas McCourt. The consolidated appeal involved lower-court case numbers 42-2024-CF-1843-A and 42-2024-CF-3346-A.

The opinion does not describe the charges, the lower court’s rulings, Savage’s arguments on appeal, or the State’s responses.

The Court’s Holding

The Florida Fifth District Court of Appeal affirmed the lower court’s decisions in a per curiam disposition.

The court provided no reasoning or discussion of the merits. Judges MAKAR, KILBANE, and MACIVER concurred.

Key Takeaways

  • The Fifth District affirmed the rulings under review.
  • The decision was issued per curiam without a written explanation.
  • The opinion establishes no stated rationale beyond the affirmance itself.

Why It Matters

The decision leaves the lower court’s rulings in place but offers no substantive analysis for attorneys to apply in other cases. Its significance is therefore primarily to the parties and the disposition of these consolidated appeals.
