Garcia-Allen/Turner v. State, Department of Transportation
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 13, 1988 · Ervin, Wentworth, Zehmer
533 So. 2d 820; 13 Fla. L. Weekly 2325; 1988 Fla. App. LEXIS 4540; 1988 WL 105200 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Garcia-Allen/Turner v. State, Department of Transportation

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The final decision of the Florida Department of Transportation (DOT) to reject appellant’s bid depended upon the refusal of the Federal Highway Authority to concur in DOT’s revised opinion to award the bid to appellant; therefore, no fraud or misconduct exists. See Liberty County v. Baxter’s Asphalt & Concrete, Inc., 421 So.2d 505 (Fla. 1982). Additionally, there was no evidence of collusion or of an attempt to avoid competition. See Dep’t of Transp. v. *821Groves-Watkins Constructors, 530 So.2d 912 (Fla. 1988).

AFFIRMED.

ERVIN, WENTWORTH and ZEHMER, JJ., concur.
