Greenberg v. Hall, Dickler, Kent, Friedman, & Wood, L.L.P.
Opinion of the Court
This is an appeal from the entry of a final summary judgment. The appellee law firm sued appellants, David Frome Greenberg individually and 900 I.N. Direct, Inc. (“Direct”) for unpaid legal bills in a three-count complaint for open account, account stated, and services rendered to Direct. The firm sought to impose individual liability against Greenberg pursuant to section 607.1421(4), Florida Statutes (1997)
Based upon our careful and thorough review of the record evidence before us, we conclude that summary judgment was improvidently entered in this cause where there is a genuine factual dispute both as to whether the firm’s legal services were in fact rendered to appellants at their request and whether the invoices being sued upon were accurate even if such services were requested. Where there exist issues of material
Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
. The pertinent part of the statute states:
A director, officer, or agent of a corporation dissolved pursuant to this section, purporting to act on behalf of the corporation, is personally liable for the debts, obligations, and liabilities of the corporation arising from such action and incurred subsequent to the corporation’s administrative dissolution only if he or she has actual notice of the administrative dissolution at the time such action is taken[.]
§ 607.1421(4), Fla. Stat. (1997).
