State Farm Florida Insurance Co. v. Colella
District Court of Appeal of Florida
1Opinion of the Court
ALTENBERND, Judge.
State Farm Florida Insurance Company appeals a partial final judgment entered pursuant to an order granting a motion for summary judgment in favor of Karen Co-lella on her claim for breach of contract. This lawsuit arises from a sinkhole claim on which State Farm has paid its policy limits with interest. We conclude that the trial court erred in determining that there was no issue of fact and that State Farm, as a matter of law, had breached its contract with Ms. Colella. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
