No. 87-120 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | Sep 18, 1987
The appellant, Marvella Associates, Inc., and the joinder appellant, Bonita Springs Golf Course, Ltd., filed a joint motion to consolidate this appeal, Appeal No. 87-120, with the appeal in Marvella Associates, Inc. v. Eleanor D. Carney, as personal representative of the Estate of Lee Carney, deceased, Appeal No. 87-1446.
The appeal in No. 87-120 is taken from a trial court order that denied appellant’s motion for leave to file a reply to affirmative defenses and from an order that granted appellee’s motion for judgment on the pleadings on appellant’s cross-claim.
The appellee, Eleanor D. Carney, responds that the motion to consolidate the two cases should be denied. She submits that the trial court did not have authority to enter the orders appealed in Appeal No. 87-120 because the appellant had earlier filed a notice of voluntary dismissal. The appellant and joinder appellant agree, as do we. See Ambory v. Ambory, 442 So. 2d 1087" court="Fla. Dist. Ct.
