McManus v. State Farm Insurance Co.
McManus v. State Farm Insurance Co.
Dissenting Opinion
dissenting.
At a minimum, that part of the barely intelligible complaint requesting damages for pain and suffering in a contract action was properly dismissed and the majority should so acknowledge. See Industrial Fire & Casualty Insurance Company v. Romer, 432 So.2d 66 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983).
In so far as the complaint might be construed as stating an independent tort on a bad faith claim,
My conclusion is especially pertinent since the appellant’s brief on appeal, also barely intelligible, actually concedes that he is not entitled to damages for pain and suffering.
. It should be noted that it is not really possible to be sure on what theory or theories the complaint is based,
Opinion of the Court
We reverse and remand. Although the trial court properly granted the motion to dismiss appellant’s pro se complaint, the record fails to reflect sufficient justification for a dismissal with prejudice. Delia & Wilson, Inc. v. Wilson, 448 So.2d 621 (Fla. 4th DCA 1984).
