Harp Group, Inc. v. Leins
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided December 13, 2006 · Lagoa, Ramirez, Schwartz
946 So. 2d 571; 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 20771; 2006 WL 3615489 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Harp Group, Inc. v. Leins

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The appellee’s motion to dissolve a preliminary injunction below was granted without an evidentiary hearing on the ground that the court lacked “jurisdiction.” This was clearly erroneous since the court possessed both subject matter jurisdiction of a proceeding for injunction, see Sirgany Int’l, Inc. v. Miami-Dade County, 887 So.2d 381, 383 (Fla. 3d DCA 2004), and personal jurisdiction over the defendant-appellee through personal service in Florida. The order on appeal is therefore reversed and the preliminary injunction reinstated forthwith pending a full hearing on the merits of the motion to dissolve the injunction.

Reversed.
