May v. Miami Transfer Co.
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided November 4, 1998 · Jorgenson, Shevin, Sorondo
719 So. 2d 1034; 1998 Fla. App. LEXIS 13923; 1998 WL 771433 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

May v. Miami Transfer Co.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

James May, plaintiff below, appeals from an order of final summary judgment. Upon the appellee’s correct and commendable confession of error, we reverse. See JFK Medical Ctr. v. Price, 647 So.2d 833 (Fla. 1994) (holding that the voluntary dismissal, with prejudice, of an active tortfeasor is not the equivalent of an adjudication on the merits that would bar further litigation against the passive tortfeasor).

Reversed and remanded for further proceedings.
