Standard Guaranty Insurance v. Geeting

355 So. 2d 819, 1978 Fla. App. LEXIS 14926

• Court: District Court of Appeal of Florida

• Docket: No. 76-2050
• Status: Published

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

This appeal is brought from an order awarding costs in favor of appellees as an adjunct to a judgment in favor of appellees and against appellant’s insured. The main judgment herein has been recently reversed by a decision of this court¹ and the cause remanded for a new trial. As is conceded by the appellees in this appeal, the cost judgment cannot stand when the judgment upon which it is predicated has been reversed. Therefore, the cost judgment is hereby reversed and the cause remanded for further consideration by the trial court.

HOBSON, A. C. J., and OTT and DAN-AHY, JJ., concur.
