Summary
In Ruiz v. Fernandez, 370 So.2d 410 (Fla. 3d DCA 1979), we affirmed this judgment over both FIGA's appeal on the merits, and the plaintiff's cross-appeal from the $10,000 limitation of the judgment against FIGA. Because of our ruling on the merits, we do not consider whether the prior ruling was res judicata or established the law of the case concerning the present issue.
