LORTIE v. FORTIN

No. 82-720.

421 So.2d 193 (1982)

Muriel LORTIE and Marie Quimet, a Majority of the Last Surviving Board of Directors of Two Brothers D'Arpino, Inc., a Florida Corporation, Appellants, v. Bernard FORTIN, D/B/a Boardwalk Tavern and Samy Botton, Appellees.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

November 3, 1982.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

John J. Murphy of Pallotto, Weir & Hayson, Hollywood, for appellants.

Daniel B. Bass, Fort Lauderdale, for appellees.

We agree. See, e.g., Carothers v. Patton, 288 So.2d 293 (Fla.3d DCA 1973). We therefore affirm.
