District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Rodney S. Margol, of Allen, Margol, Fryefield & McCaulie, Jacksonville, for appellants.

Charles Cook Howell, Jr., Gainesville, for appellees.


SHIVERS, Judge.

Appellants brought a slip and fall personal injury action against appellees. Following the presentation of all evidence, the trial court entered a directed verdict in favor of the movant appellees.

Accordingly, we reverse the final judgment and remand the case for a new trial.
