No. AS-291 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | Jan 25, 1984
ON MOTION FOR STAY OF MANDATE
Appellant’s motion for this Court to stay the issuance of its mandate to the lower court is denied. Our previous per curiam affirmance as to all four points on appeal is reaffirmed. Fla.App., 443 So.2d 984. However, we would clarify our position as to the issue of whether refusal to allow evidence on the effect of appellee’s failure to wear his seat belt constituted reversible error. We hold that it did not and in so holding rely upon and adopt the reasoning in Lafferty v. Allstate Insurance Company, 425 So. 2d 1147" date_filed="1982-12-15" court="Fla. Dist. Ct.
