David v. Peninsular Building Supply Co.

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided December 27, 1985No. 84-1621PublishedCited by 1 opinion

1Per curiam

The most important question argued on this appeal is whether appellant stipulated for the case to be tried nonjury. However, despite an apparent misunderstanding on the part of the judge, our examination of the record reflects that appellant never made demand for a jury trial on his defenses to the lien foreclosure or on his counterclaim. Consequently, appellant’s reliance upon Hightower v. Bigoney, 156 So.2d 501 (Fla.1963), is misplaced.

Affirmed.
