District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District

543 So. 2d 277 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1989)

Opinion

No. 89-43.

April 11, 1989. Rehearing Denied June 6, 1989.

An Appeal from a non-final order from the Circuit Court for Dade County; Mary Ann MacKenzie, Judge.

Charles L. Neustein, Miami Beach, for appellants.

Lapidus Frankel and Robert P. Frankel, Miami, for appellees.

Before JORGENSON, COPE and LEVY, JJ.


In considering objections to a foreclosure sale the "`chancellor has a large discretion which will only be interfered with by the appellate court in a clear case of injustice.'" Crichlow v. Equitable Life Assurance Soc'y, 131 Fla. 752, 756, 180 So. 382, 384 (1938); accord Maule Indus. v. Seminole Rock Sand Co., 91 So.2d 307, 311 (Fla. 1956). Although appellants complain of the procedures followed at the foreclosure sale, such confusion as may have existed was the proximate result of a chain of events set in motion by appellants themselves. They will not now be heard to complain. See Malkus v. Gaines, 476 So.2d 220, 222 (Fla. 3d DCA 1985) ("the equity court should not lend its extraordinary powers to benefit one . . . who has `unclean hands'"). On this record, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in overruling appellants' objections to the foreclosure sale.

Affirmed.
