1. “(1) a false statement or misrepresentation of material fact; (2) the representor’s knowledge at the time the misrepresentation is made that the statement is false; (3) an intention that the misrepresentation induce another to act; (4) action in justifiable reliance on the representation; and (5) resulting damage or injury.”

2. “[Integration clauses do not “cloak defendants with immunity” from fraudulent statements. Florida law is clear that if a party alleges that a contract was procured by fraud or misrepresentation as to a material fact, an integration clause will not make the contract incontestable, and the oral representations may be introduced into evidence to establish fraud.”

3. “The ability of MeterLogie to negotiate fair terms and make a truly informed decision has been undermined by these misrepresentations. For example, had MeterLogie known that [the corporate parents] were not really behind the contracts, MeterLogie could have protected itself by agreeing to different terms or refusing to enter into the agreements altogether.”
