Roder v. Ferkovich

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided December 11, 1998

District Court of Appeal of Florida · decided 1998-12-11

Decided 1998-12-11

GRIFFIN, C.J.

¶1The defendants below appeal an order granting a new trial after the jury found no liability on the part of defendants. The trial court did not err in granting the Ferkoviches a new trial. There was no evidence to support a finding that Roder was not negligent in running into the rear of Ferkovich’s vehicle, and there was no evidence which would support a finding that the Ferkoviches had sustained no injuries or damages as a result of the accident. Based on the foregoing, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in ordering a new trial.

¶2AFFIRMED.

DAUKSCH and PETERSON, JJ., concur.
