Full title: BUFORD MILLETT, APPELLANT, v. TRAVELERS INDEMNITY COMPANY ET AL., APPELLEES

Court: District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District

Date published: Jan 9, 1974

287 So. 2d 708 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1974)

Opinion

No. 73-18.

January 9, 1974.

Appeal from Circuit Court, for Hillsborough County; Victor O. Wehle, Judge.

Richard R. Mulholland of Mulholland Slater and David A. Maney of Gordon Maney, Tampa, for appellant.

John W. Cash and Benjamin H. Hill, III, of Shackleford, Farrior, Stallings Evans, Tampa, for appellees.

PER CURIAM.

Summary judgment in favor of defendants-appellees in this negligence action must be reversed. It is apparent here that material issues of fact are yet to be resolved on the questions of contributory negligence and proximate causation. Cf. City of St. Petersburg v. Naden (Fla.App. 1973), 284 So.2d 15.

Reversed.

HOBSON, A.C.J., and McNULTY and GRIMES, JJ., concur.
