Cordova v. Enclave at Silver Lakes Associates, Ltd.
714 So. 2d 1209; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 10321; 1998 WL 466729
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Cordova v. Enclave at Silver Lakes Associates, Ltd.
Opinion of the Court
We affirm the summary judgment in favor of the appellees, who constructed a home for the appellants. The court erred, however, in including attorney’s fees for an arbitration proceeding when it awarded attorney’s fees to the appellees pursuant to the prevailing party attorney’s fee provision in the contract. The arbitration did not arise out of the contract, but rather was pursuant to a separate homeowner’s warranty issued by a third party, which was independent of the contract between the appellants and the appellees.
Affirmed in part and reversed in part.
