Opinion
No. 82-1492.
April 20, 1983. Rehearing Denied May 25, 1983.
Appeal from Circuit Court, Broward County; James M. Reasbeck, Judge.
Charles T. Becker and James V. Dolan of Chidnese Becker, Fort Lauderdale, for appellant.
George P. Roberts, Jr., of Fleming, O'Bryan Fleming, West Palm Beach, for appellee City of North Lauderdale.
Harry A. Stewart, Gen. Counsel, and Alexander Cocalis, Deputy Gen. Counsel, Fort Lauderdale, for appellee Broward County.
We reluctantly affirm the directed verdict appealed here. The record discloses evidence that might have supported a jury verdict for appellant; however, some of the errors complained of on appeal were never properly presented to the trial court nor were they adequately preserved for appeal. Compounding these inadequacies the more meritorious points on appeal were advanced for the first time during oral argument and are not even alluded to in appellant's initial, and only, brief. Accordingly, we have no alternative but to affirm.
AFFIRMED.
BERANEK and HERSEY, JJ., concur.
ANSTEAD, J., dissents without opinion.
