American Druggist Insurance Co. v. First Citizens Federal Savings & Loan Ass'n
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 19, 1986 · Anstead, Dell, Walden
502 So. 2d 1; 1986 Fla. App. LEXIS 6456 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

American Druggist Insurance Co. v. First Citizens Federal Savings & Loan Ass'n

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We reverse and remand the award of attorney’s fees on the authority of Fritillary Holdings, Inc. v. Pat & Mae’s Danceland Club, 443 So.2d 506 (Fla. 4th DCA 1984). While the courts may be sympathetic to the plight of those having to employ counsel and go to court to collect debts that are admittedly due, we have already determined in Fritillary that Section 57.105, Florida Statutes (1983) does not apply to such situations.

ANSTEAD, DELL and WALDEN, JJ., concur.
