Appeal from a non-final order from the Circuit Court for Dade County; Murray Goldman, Judge.

Therrel, Baisden Meyer Weiss and Julian R. Benjamin, Miami Beach, for appellants.

Before BARKDULL, HUBBART and BASKIN, JJ.


Finding no abuse of discretion in the trial court's ruling that enforcement of the contract would be unreasonable and unjust; that the forum designated in the contract was chosen because of the defendants' overwhelming bargaining power; and that enforcement of the choice of forum clause would contravene the strong public policy of Texas, we affirm the trial court's Order Denying Re-Stated Motion to Dismiss. Manrique v. Fabbri, 493 So.2d 437 (Fla. 1986); Haws Garrett General Contractors, Inc. v. Panhandle Custom Decorators Supply, Inc., 500 So.2d 204 (Fla. 1st DCA 1986).

Affirmed.
