Goff v. Ehrlich
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided January 19, 2001 · Harris, Pleus, Thompson
776 So. 2d 1011; 2001 Fla. App. LEXIS 358; 2001 WL 43056 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Goff v. Ehrlich

Opinion of the Court

HARRIS, J.

Goff was the successful candidate for the Seminole County School Board who, after the election, sued his opponent for allegedly violating the provisions of Chapter 106, Florida Statutes, by not reporting a sup*1012porter’s payment of a pre-election and post-election legal challenge to Goffs qualifying residency as a contribution to the campaign. Because we find that Chapter 106 does not confer a private right of action,1 we affirm the trial court’s dismissal of the complaint.

AFFIRMED.

THOMPSON, C.J., and PLEUS, J., concur.

. See Fischer v. Metcalf, 543 So.2d 785 (Fla. 3d DCA 1989).
