Major Realty Corp. v. Florida State Turnpike Authority

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District
Jan 31, 1964
160 So. 2d 125 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1964)

Opinion

No. 4105.

January 31, 1964.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County, Frank A. Smith, J.

Gurney, Gurney Handley, Orlando, for appellants.

P.A. Pacyna, Tallahassee, for appellee.


Basically, the question at issue is whether a mortgagee of lands in a condemnation action is entitled to be awarded an attorney's fee to be paid by the petitioner-condemnor. The trial judge answered this question in the negative. We are in accord with this determination. See the case of Shavers v. Duval County, Fla. 1954, 73 So.2d 684.

Affirmed.

KANNER, Acting C.J., WHITE, J., and REVELS, P.B., Associate Judge, concur.
