Florida District Courts of Appeal, 1987

Blanco v. Allen

Blanco v. Allen
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 22, 1987 · Anstead, Dell, Letts
509 So. 2d 1356; 12 Fla. L. Weekly 1771; 1987 Fla. App. LEXIS 9408 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Blanco v. Allen

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellants appeal from a summary final judgment of foreclosure entered against them. We reverse. A trial court may only enter a summary judgment where there is a complete absence of a genuine issue of material fact. Holl v. Talcott, 191 So.2d 40 (Fla. 1966). The trial court’s grant of summary judgment on the pleadings and affidavits in this matter represents the adjudication of the issues rather than the determination of the nonexistence of a genuine issue of material fact. Ham v. Heintzelman’s Ford, Inc., 256 So.2d 264 (Fla. 4th DCA 1971).

REVERSED and REMANDED for further proceedings.

ANSTEAD, LETTS and DELL, JJ., concur.
