United Farm Agency of Florida, Inc. v. DKLS, Inc.

585 So. 2d 1139, 1991 Fla. App. LEXIS 9553, 1991 WL 181489

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

United Farm Agency of Florida, Inc., appeals from a final order invalidating an attempted levy that was based on a judgment for brokerage fees. We affirm.

Although we sympathize with United Farm’s plight, we agree with the trial court’s ruling that the proper means of executing a judgment is to institute proceedings supplementary. See § 56.29, Fla. Stat. (1989). Proceedings supplementary to execution are the intended means for a judgment creditor to receive satisfaction of a judgment. See Advertects, Inc. v. Sawyer Indus., 84 So.2d 21 (Fla.1956).

Therefore, we affirm without prejudice to United Farm to bring proceedings supplementary to execution.
