479 So. 2d 191; 10 Fla. L. Weekly 2596; 1985 Fla. App. LEXIS 5924
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Home Savings Ass'n of Florida v. Attorneys' Title Insurance Fund
Opinion of the Court
ON MOTION FOR REHEARING
The trial court properly considered the provisions of a contract, which was attached to and incorporated into the complaint by reference, in granting appellee’s motion to dismiss. Len Hazen Painters, Inc. v. Wood-Hopkins Construction Co., 396 So.2d 1233 (Fla. 1st DCA 1981).
Affirmed.
BARKDULL and FERGUSON, JJ., concur.
Dissenting Opinion
(dissenting).
Because the complaint and its accompanying documents state a cause of action, the trial court should have decided the claim on its merits. See Helms v. General Film Development Corp., 346 So.2d 1064 (Fla. 3d DCA 1977). I would therefore reverse and remand for further consideration.
