Santi v. Cohmar Associates, Inc.

Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 22, 1989 · Frank, Hersey, Richard, Stone

538 So. 2d 153; 14 Fla. L. Weekly 517; 1989 Fla. App. LEXIS 788; 1989 WL 13117 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed; however, we find error in the trial court’s refusal to include prejudgment interest on the $125,000.00 award and we remand with directions to compute and award prejudgment interest. See Argonaut Insurance Co. v. May Plumbing Co., 474 So.2d 212 (Fla. 1985); Law v. Blue Lagoon-Pompano, Inc., 470 So.2d 33 (Fla. 4th DCA 1985).

HERSEY, C.J., and FRANK, RICHARD H., Associate Judge, concur. STONE, J., dissents with opinion.

Dissenting Opinion

STONE, Judge,

dissenting.

I dissent because I consider the damages to be speculative and because the lower court applied the wrong measure of damages.
