10 Fla. L. Weekly 575; 1985 Fla. App. LEXIS 12802
Glickstein, Hersey, Letts

Florida Atlantic Associates v. Belmont

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Confident that the trial court is familiar with the premise that, in ruling on a motion under rule 1.280(c), Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, in the context of discovery of net worth where an issue of punitive damages is involved, the trial judge may consider, among other things, “whether or not an actual factual basis exists for an award of punitive damages,” Tennant v. Charlton, 377 So.2d 1169 (Fla. 1979), we deny the petition for writ of certiorari directed to an order limiting discovery in the lower court.

LETTS, HERSEY and GLICKSTEIN, JJ., concur.
