About this source
Florida's District Courts of Appeal sit between the trial courts and the Florida Supreme Court. Six districts cover the state, hearing appeals on civil judgments, criminal convictions, family law orders, and administrative decisions. This feed tracks every published opinion across all six districts, around 125 a month, with the case name, appellant, type of relief sought, and outcome. Watch this if you practice civil litigation in Florida, defend insurance disputes (the carriers fight a lot of appeals here), or follow Florida's busy criminal post-conviction docket. GovPing pulls from CourtListener's official mirror of the courts' RSS feeds.
What changed
The appellate court affirmed the trial court judgment without issuing a written opinion explaining the basis for the affirmance. The case involved a trust and estate dispute with David Laurine as appellant against multiple appellees including Victoria A. Shupe as Trustee of the Laurine Revocable Trust dated November 14, 2011. Attorneys from Adrian Philip Thomas, P.A. represented the appellant while Gunster, Yoakley & Stewart, P.A. represented the primary appellees.
Affected parties include the named litigants and their estates who remain bound by the underlying circuit court judgment. The affirmed decision carries the weight of finality and closes this avenue of appellate review.
