Appeal from the denial of a Florida Rule of Criminal Procedure 3.850 motion in the Circuit Court for Duval County.
Summary
The Fifth District Court of Appeal considered an appeal by Trevorisse Thomas from the denial of a Rule 3.850 motion in Duval County. The court issued a brief per curiam decision on April 21, 2026, affirming the lower court's ruling. No written opinion was provided and the state did not file an appearance. The panel unanimously concurred, and the decision is subject to any timely motion for rehearing or certification under Florida appellate rules.
Issue Decided
- Whether the circuit court erred in denying appellant Trevorisse Thomas's Rule 3.850 postconviction motion.
Court's Reasoning
The court issued a per curiam affirmance without a written opinion, indicating the panel found no reversible error in the circuit court's disposition of the Rule 3.850 motion. Because the decision is summary, the appellate court relied on the record and lower-court rulings to conclude the denial was correct. The unanimity of the panel supports that the court found the motion did not establish entitlement to relief.
