By Third District Court of Appeal of Florida

  • Release Date: 1979-09-25
  • Genre: Law

Description

William and Virginia Parrish appeal a final judgment finding them liable for breach of contract and awarding appellees liquidated and actual damages. Appellants raise three points: (1) whether the judgment must be reversed because the trial proceeded without an order setting the case for trial, a violation of rule 1.440(c), Florida Rules of Civil Procedure; (2) whether the evidence was sufficient to hold Virginia Parrish, who did not sign the contract, liable to appellees for the alleged breach; and (3) whether it was error to award both liquidated and actual damages for the same injury. We affirm on the first two points, but reverse on the third.
