Nichols v. May Department Stores Co.
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 2, 1994 · Gunther, Juan, Ramirez, Stone
632 So. 2d 293; 1994 Fla. App. LEXIS 1693; 1994 WL 60845 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Nichols v. May Department Stores Co.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We reverse a final order granting defendant’s motion to enforce an oral settlement agreement.

It is clear from our examination of the record that the terms of a letter to be written by Appellee were an essential element of the settlement discussion. The record does not support a conclusion that Appellant’s attorney1 agreed to the terms imposed.

GUNTHER and STONE, JJ., and RAMIREZ, JUAN, Jr., Associate Judge, concur.

. The attorney’s authority to settle is not disputed.
