Opinion
No. 77-1440.
July 11, 1978.
Appeal from the Circuit Court, Dade County, Sidney M. Weaver, J.
Fowler, White, Burnett, Hurley, Banick Knight and A. Blackwell Stieglitz, Miami, for appellants.
Steel, Hector Davis and Paul Bonavia, Miami, for appellee.
Before HENDRY, J., HELIO GOMEZ, Associate Judge, and CHARLES CARROLL (Ret.), Associate Judge.
Appellants/plaintiffs appeal from an adverse final judgment rendered pursuant to a directed verdict in favor of appellee/defendant on a claim for damages arising from a fire allegedly caused by defective power service provided by appellee power company.
After carefully reviewing the record, briefs and arguments of counsel it is our opinion that appellants failed to present any evidence from which a jury could determine that appellee was negligent or that any purported negligence on its part proximately caused the fire. See Bromer v. Florida Power Light Company, 45 So.2d 658 (Fla. 1950); Brookshire v. Florida Bendix Co., 153 So.2d 55 (Fla. 3d DCA 1963).
Accordingly, final judgment is hereby affirmed.
Affirmed.
