State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co. v. Heppelle

Florida District Courts of Appeal July 13, 1988

State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co. v. Heppelle, 528 So. 2d 505 (1988)

13 Fla. L. Weekly 1672; 1988 Fla. App. LEXIS 3020; 1988 WL 72244

Lehan, Parker, Scheb

Opinion of the Court

LEHAN, Judge.

We reverse the trial court’s final summary judgment which determined that plaintiff was entitled to uninsured motorist coverage equal to the $100,000 bodily injury coverage provided by the policy. This ease is controlled by Marchesano v. Nationwide Property & Casualty Insurance Co., 506 So.2d 410 (Fla. 1987).

We do not agree with plaintiffs argument that Marchesano is materially distinguishable. See Landi v. Nationwide Mutual Fire Insurance Co., 529 So.2d 1170 (Fla. 2d DCA 1988).

Reversed and remanded for proceedings consistent herewith.

SCHEB, A.C.J., and PARKER, J., concur.
