Appeal from the Circuit Court for Escambia County
Summary
The Florida First District Court of Appeal reviewed an appeal by Jessie Lee Shumaker from the Circuit Court for Escambia County. The appellate court, in a per curiam decision issued April 16, 2026, affirmed the lower court's judgment without further opinion. The court noted the decision is not final until resolution of any timely post-judgment motions authorized by Florida appellate rules. No detailed reasoning or factual background is provided in the opinion.
Issue Decided
- Whether the circuit court's judgment challenged by Appellant Jessie Lee Shumaker should be reversed.
Court's Reasoning
