District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1973-03-06

Relies on 179 So. 2d 890 - United States v. State · Corbett v. Eastern Air Lines, Inc. · 212 So. 2d 911 - 2765 South Bayshore Drive Corp. v. Fred Howland, Inc.

Decided 1973-03-06

PER CURIAM.

¶1This interlocutory appeal is from an order of the Circuit Court of Dade County, Florida, denying appellants’ motion to amend their answer and add a counterclaim which was filed two and one-half years after their original answer, and just prior to a hearing on a motion for summary judgment.

¶2Appellants contend that the court abused its direction in refusing to allow the additional pleadings.

¶3We have considered the record on appeal, briefs and arguments of counsel and have concluded that no abuse of discretion has been made to appear.

¶4As this court and other appellate courts have held, where no such showing is made the ruling of the trial judge will not be disturbed. 2765 South Bayshore Drive Corp. v. Fred Howland, Inc., Fla.App. 1968, 212 So.2d 911; United States v. State, Fla.App. 1965, 179 So.2d 890; Corbett v. Eastern Air Lines, Inc., Fla.App. 1964, 166 So.2d 196.

¶5Affirmed.
