Overview: Where trustee had made a demand for attorneys' fees in his original breach of contract counterclaim, but did not explicitly request the fees in its motion to dismiss a company's amended complaint, the trustee was still entitled to the fees as the company was placed on notice of the claim and had requested attorneys' fees under the contract itself.

| Ferguson v. Ferguson, CASE NO. 5D05-1658,
COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FIFTH DISTRICT, February 24, 2006, Opinion Filed
View this case - free |
|||||

COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FIFTH DISTRICT, February 24, 2006, Opinion Filed

|||||
Overview: Because a city ordinance covering the handling of absentee ballots was not ambiguous, and its clear meaning did not require voters to mail the ballots personally, absentee ballots mailed by another person other than the voter could lawfully be counted. Hence, summary judgment on this issue was properly entered against the statute's challengers.

COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, SECOND DISTRICT, February 24, 2006, Opinion Filed
View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Because an attorney's testimony consisted only of an opinion as to the legal interpretation of certain deeds, it was not admissible for expert opinion; therefore, the trial court erred in taxing costs for an expert witness fee.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Trial court's order denying defendant's Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.850 motion was vacated, as the State conceded that documents attached to the trial judge's order did not conclusively refute defendant's claim that portions of the written plea agreement were altered by the prosecutor after defendant had signed it.

COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FIFTH DISTRICT, February 24, 2006, Opinion Filed

|||||
Overview: Because a dissolution judgment approved an ex-husband's payment of temporary support from a marital asset without adequate findings of fact and the judgment lacked requisite findings of fact as to the ex-husband's monthly income and the value of his substantial non-marital assets, the ex-wife's request for additional attorney's fees was premature.
