The history and background are set forth in the opinions of the District Court and it would serve no useful purpose to repeat them here.

Griffin, 182 So. 2d 7" court="Fla." date_filed="1966-01-05" href="https://app.midpage.ai/document/lynch-davidson-motors-v-griffin-1873420?utm_source=webapp" opinion_id="1873420">182 So.2d 7, and the cause remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with that decision.

It is so ordered.
