Wemett v. Carson

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District
Oct 19, 1989
549 So. 2d 1216 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1989)

Opinion

No. 89-38.

October 19, 1989.

An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Duval County; John S. Cox, Judge.

Glen A. Wemett, pro se.

James L. Harrison, General Counsel and Thomas E. Crowder, Asst. Counsel, Jacksonville, for appellees.


The order of the trial court dismissing appellant's complaint with prejudice as to Sheriff Dale Carson is affirmed because the complaint purports to recover from the sheriff in his official capacity. The order dismissing the complaint with prejudice against the remaining appellees is reversed. The third amended complaint clearly sets forth the intent to sue the officers in their personal capacity and alleges the requisites of conduct and intention to remove them from the immunity covered by section 768.29(9)(a), Florida Statutes (1983).

AFFIRMED in part, REVERSED in part, and REMANDED.

BOOTH and JOANOS, JJ., concur.
