Sunniland Bank v. Mosley

Florida District Courts of Appeal
Sunniland Bank v. Mosley, 659 So. 2d 1184 (1995)
1995 Fla. App. LEXIS 8680; 1995 WL 480983
Farmer, Stevenson, Warner

Sunniland Bank v. Mosley

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from an order denying relief from a final judgment of default. Appellant claims it is entitled to relief because its answer to the complaint was served on the same day the clerk entered the default, citing Gibraltar Serv. Corp. v. Lone and Associates, Inc., 488 So.2d 582 (Fla. 4th DCA 1986). We agree that Gibraltar is controlling and the default should have been vacated. Therefore, we reverse and remand for the trial court to vacate the final judgment and default and for further proceedings.

WARNER, FARMER and STEVENSON, JJ., concur.
