Supreme Court of Florida · Decided October 18, 1938 · Ellis, Whitfield, Terrell, Brown, Buford, Chapman
183 So. 845; 134 Fla. 423; 1938 Fla. LEXIS 1120 (Southern Reporter)

Golden Gate Development Co. v. Ritchie

Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

This cause is here on motion to dismiss the appeal upon the ground that the appellant has failed to comply with Sub-s'ections (c) and (f) of Rule 20 of this Court controlling the manner of preparing briefs to be filed in this Court. An examination has been made of the brief and while the same fails to meet the requirements of the Rule and is otherwise subject to the criticism appearing in *424 the motion, we have observed a request on the part of counsel for appellees for an oral argument, and under the circumstances of this cas'e, we have concluded that it would be expedient to withhold a ruling on the motion to dismiss until after the case is heard on oral argument, when the entire record can, be considered by this Court on its merits.

It is so ordered.

Ellis, C. J., and Whitfield, Terrell, Brown, Buford and Chapman, J. J., concur.
