698 So. 2d 933 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1997)

Opinion

Case No. 96-1257 96-2373

September 10, 1997

Consolidated appeals from the Circuit Court for the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, Palm Beach County; Richard I. Wennet, Judge; L.T. Case No. CL 90-2653 AN.

Lisa S. Small and Michael B. Small of Small Small, P.A., Palm Beach, for appellants.

Eric G. Belsky and Jeffrey W. Johnson of Hinshaw Culbertson, Fort Lauderdale, for Appellee-General Plumbing, Inc.

David S. Tadros of Walton Lantaff Schroeder Carson, West Palm Beach, for Appellee-Hawthorne Industries, Inc.

Richard A. Sherman and Rosemary B. Wilder of Richard A. Sherman, P.A., and Richard B. Doyle, Jr. of Loughren Doyle, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for Appellee-Jack Vogel Simulated Brick and Stone, Inc.

Thomas A. Berger of Flanagan, Maniotis Berger, P.A., West Palm Beach, for Appellee-Sasser's Glass Works, Inc.


We affirm the final judgment as to all Appellees except with respect to a post-judgment discovery order involving only Appellee-Sasser's Glass Works, Inc. The trial court denied Appellant's motion for protective order, which alleged that Sasser's subpoena duces tecum and request for production improperly sought records protected by attorney-client and work product privileges. We do not consider or address the merits, but reverse that discovery order and remand for the trial court to conduct an in camera inspection of the items in question before determining whether the claimed privileges apply. See Paskoski v. Johnson, 626 So.2d 338 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993). In all other respects, we affirm.

STONE, C.J., POLEN and SHAHOOD, JJ., concur.
