226 So. 2d 873 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | 1969
The appellants, who were plaintiffs in the trial court, appeal from an order dismissing their complaint against Dade County. The dismissal was with prejudice upon appellants’ refusal to file an amended complaint. The question presented to the trial court was whether the complaint stated sufficient facts to require an answer. It is apparent from the allegations of the complaint that Dade County, a political subdivision of the State of Florida, enjoys governmental immunity
In addition the activity complained of, the alleged failure to promptly remove trash piled adjacent to the street, is a governmental activity. Cf. Waite v. Dade County, Fla.1954, 74 So.2d 681, 683.
