Arellano v. Hernandez - Civil Appeal Affirmed
Summary
The District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District, affirmed per curiam a circuit court ruling in Arellano v. Hernandez (No. 1D2025-0325). The three-judge panel (Ray, Winokur, and M.K. Thomas, JJ.) issued a standard affirmance without published opinion. This per curiam disposition carries no precedential value beyond the immediate parties.
What changed
The Florida First District Court of Appeal issued a per curiam affirmance of the Circuit Court for Escambia County decision in this civil matter. The appellate panel affirmed without issuing a written opinion explaining its reasoning, a common procedural disposition when the lower court's ruling requires no correction of law or fact.
For practitioners and parties, a per curiam affirmance means the judgment below is validated but provides no new legal guidance. Attorneys should note that such dispositions cannot be cited as precedent. The underlying circuit court judgment remains in full force and effect, and any further review would require timely filing of motions under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or 9.331, or pursuit of collateral remedies.
