SIXTH DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF FLORIDA _____________________________ Case No. 6D2025-2767 Lower Tribunal No. 2025-CC-005586 _____________________________ JEAN ULYSSE, Appellant, v. VINELAND INVESTMENT PARTNERS PHASE II, LLC, Appellee. _____________________________ Appeal from the County Court for Osceola County. Juna M. Pulayya, Judge. September 10, 2026 SMITH, J. Appellant, Jean Ulysse (“Ulysse”), appeals the final default judgment in favor of Appellee, Vineland Investment Partners Phase II, LLC (“Vineland”), in relation to Vineland’s residential eviction action. Vineland moved to strike Ulysse’s Initial Brief as, among other things, it lacked any citations to the record. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.210(b)(3) (requires initial brief to contain “references to the appropriate pages of the record or transcript”). We granted Vineland’s motion and struck Ulysse’s Initial Brief. Ulysse’s Amended Initial Brief is fifty-six pages long, yet it again does not contain a single citation to the record on appeal. “[I]t is not the function of the Court to rebrief an appeal.” Polyglycoat Corp. v. Hirsch Distribs, Inc., 442 So. 2d 958, 960 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983); see also Walker v. Est. of Yee, 376 So. 3d 758, 758 (Fla. 4th DCA 2024) (applying the principles set forth in Polyglycoat to pro se litigants). As Ulysse’s arguments are insufficiently briefed, we therefore affirm. We also note that seven of the cases cited in Ulysse’s Amended Initial Brief— which he cites a total of at least twenty times—do not exist. Ulysse is directed to show cause within ten days of the issuance of this opinion why he should not be sanctioned for filing a brief that contains non-existent cases. Potential sanctions include the imposition of a requirement that a member of the Florida Bar in good standing review and sign any future filings in this Court on behalf of Appellant in any matter in which he seeks review of the underlying action (Lower Tribunal No. 2025-CC-5586-EV). See Hessert v. Hessert, 431 So. 3d 610, 615 (Fla. 6th DCA 2026). AFFIRMED. ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE ISSUED. TRAVER, C.J., and STARGEL, J., concur. Jean Ulysse, Kissimmee, pro se. William J. McCabe, Longwood, for Appellee. NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED 2
