Tudor v. State, Department of Law Enforcement
Tudor v. State, Department of Law Enforcement
Opinion of the Court
Appellant, Larry Tudor, appeals the trial court’s final order dismissing with preju
FDLE’s failure to comply with the 1991 court order gave appellant the right to return to the trial court for enforcement of the order to expunge, and to request compensatory sanctions for any economic losses which appellant was able to prove he sustained as a result of FDLE’s non-compliance. See Parisi v. Broward County, 769 So.2d 359 (Fla. 2000); Johnson v. Bednar, 573 So.2d 822, 824 (Fla. 1991). However, we do not believe that the agency’s failure to comply with a court order gives rise to a common law negligence action such as has been put forward by appellant in this case. The parties have been unable to provide legal authority directly addressing this concept, and our independent research has failed to disclose authority for such principle.
Accordingly, the trial court’s order of dismissal with prejudice is affirmed.
