Phillip R. WASSERMAN and Continental-Health Insurance, Inc., Appellants/Cross-Appellees,
v.
GULF HEALTH, INC., a Florida Corporation, d/b/a Florida Co-Op Insurance Services and Further d/b/a Ghl Financial, Appellee/Cross-Appellant.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
Law Offices of Edward D. Foreman, P.A., St. Petersburg, for appellants/cross-appellees.
B. Randall Griffiths, St. Petersburg, for appellee/cross-appellant.
RYDER, Acting Chief Judge.
This is an appeal from an order entered by the trial court on June 25, 1986 finding appellants in willful contempt. Appellants raise six points on appeal. We find merit in none. Accordingly, we affirm the trial court's order.
Appellee cross-appeals the denial of its motions to dissolve two temporary injunctions. The first motion to dissolve was served on April 17, 1986 and alleges, inter alia, that the temporary injunctions are defective on their face. The second motion to dissolve was served June 26, 1986 and argues fatal defectiveness in a conclusory fashion. Cross-appellants' first point on appeal is that the two temporary injunctions are defective upon their face and should be dissolved. We agree.
Of the two besieged orders, one fails to show a date of entry; and both fail to define the injury, fail to state findings by the court why the injury may be irreparable *235 and fail to state reasons why they were entered without notice. The orders, therefore, run afoul of the standards required in Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.610(a). See County of Orange v. Webster,
Even if the trial court would have complied with the above substantive requirements, we would have another, independent ground for reversing the trial court's denial of cross-appellant's motion to dissolve. Subsection (b) of rule 1.610 requires the posting of a bond by the movant upon entry of a temporary injunction. One of the injunctions here did not require a bond; the other required a mere $1.00 bond. A $1.00 bond for a temporary injunction has been found to be "grossly inadequate" by the fourth district. Minimatic Components, Inc. v. Westinghouse Electric Corp.,
We reverse and set aside the trial court's denial of appellee/cross-appellant's first motion to dissolve the temporary injunctions and remand with instructions to the trial court that it enter an order granting appellee's motion to dissolve.
We note that cross-appellant argues in its reply brief that "as a direct result of the issuance of the injunctions in this case, the court has sealed the entire court file." The order sealing the file was not raised as error in this appeal, and it if it had been we do not have sufficient record to render a decision as to its propriety. We do note, however, that if the order sealing the record was based solely on the two temporary injunctions, then the order's foundation has been taken from it.
Affirmed in part; reversed in part and remanded with instructions.
SCHOONOVER and HALL, JJ., concur.
