Background
Marquies Eugene Simmons appealed from a ruling of the Circuit Court for Escambia County, where Judge Coleman Lee Robinson presided. The opinion does not identify the offense, challenged ruling, arguments on appeal, or underlying facts.
Simmons was represented on appeal by the Public Defender’s Office, and the State was represented by the Attorney General’s Office.
The Court’s Holding
The Florida First District Court of Appeal affirmed the circuit court’s ruling.
The court issued a per curiam affirmance without a written explanation. Judges Roberts, Ray, and Treadwell concurred, and the opinion therefore establishes no stated rationale for the result.
Key Takeaways
- The First District affirmed the circuit court’s ruling.
- The decision was unanimous and issued per curiam.
- The opinion contains no facts, legal analysis, or explanation of the issues presented.
Why It Matters
The decision ends the appeal in the State’s favor, subject to disposition of any timely and authorized motion under Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.330 or 9.331.
Because the court supplied no reasoning, the opinion offers no express legal rule or guidance beyond the affirmance itself.
