Broward County v. Lesser

Broward County v. Lesser
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided August 23, 1995 · Pariente, Shahood, Stone
658 So. 2d 1244; 1995 Fla. App. LEXIS 8868; 1995 WL 497282 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Broward County v. Lesser

Opinion of the Court

PARIENTE, Judge.

Broward County appeals from a summary judgment in favor of its co-defendant, the City of Sunrise. Granting summary judgment in favor of Sunrise, under the facts of this case, was effectively a determination that Broward County owned the roadway. We reverse, finding that the record contains genuine issues of material fact as to whether Broward County or Sunrise owned or controlled the roadway where plaintiff was injured and which governmental entity had the duty to maintain the roadway. See Lukan-cich v. City of Tampa, 583 So.2d 1070, 1073 (Fla. 2d DCA 1991).

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

STONE and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
