Legal Question in Administrative Law in Florida

administrative hearing/housing discrimination

We had an administrative hearing in Florida Pro-se. However, we thought we were successful after giving strong testimony etc. We were approved and later dis-approved by the manager once she learned we were section-8 applicants. The manager thwarted our chances of renting and told us that we were not income qualified, but told the courts that we just walked away from our deposit /application fee, and changed our minds and that she had no further contact with us. However, during the cross-exam the Respondant ''mistakenly'' said that we frequented the property ''OFTEN.'' However,the biggest mistake we made was not examining or objecting to their exhibits. The manager wrote on a plain piece of white paper that section-8 denied our apt. The second exhibit was a faxed copy of a guarantor letter issued by my sister. This manager ''whited'' out the actual date it was submitted so it would appear that we had no further contact with her, therefore appearing to be no repeated acts of discrimination. We know doubtley the Judge was biased. Moreover, the attorney decided to mail us the Judge's decision before he could sign it. Can we offer new evidence in the appeal process, if not, object to her tailored exhibits or have a evidentiary hearing?
