Dino v. O'Dawe
Florida District Courts of Appeal
Dino v. O'Dawe, 158 So. 2d 562 (1963)
Barkdull, Horton, Pearson
Dino v. O'Dawe
Opinion of the Court
The sole question presented upon this appeal is whether the trial judge abused his discretion in allowing the plaintiff to read into evidence the deposition of a witness. The controlling procedural provision is found in Rule 1.21(d) (3), Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, 30 F.S.A. βThe deposition of a witness, whether or not a party, may be used by any party for any purpose if the court finds: * * * 3, that the witness is unable to attend or testify because of age, sickness, infirmity, or imprisonment; * * β. The appellant has failed to show an abuse of the discretion which the rule reposes in the trial judge. Cf., Driscoll v. Morris, Fla.App.1959, 114 So.2d 314, 316.
Affirmed.
