I would reverse that portion of the trial court's order holding as a matter of law that the written deposit receipt relied upon by the purchaser-appellant was an insufficient writing under the Statute of Frauds upon which to base an action for damages for breach of contract. See Langlois v. Oriole Land Development Corp., 283 So.2d 143 (Fla. 4th DCA 1973), and Fox v. Sails at Laguna Club Development Corp., 403 So.2d 456 (Fla. 3d DCA 1981).
