DUKE POWER COMPANY, Appellant, v. Tony Lee HOLLIFIELD and Seaboard System Railroad, Inc., Appellees.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

July 3, 1985.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Shawn Ettingoff of Mathews, Osborne, McNatt, Gobelman and Cobb, Jacksonville, for appellant.

Joseph P. Milton of Howell, Lyles, Braddock & Milton, Jacksonville, for appellees.


WIGGINTON, Judge.

Duke Power Company brings this interlocutory appeal from the trial court's order denying Duke Power's motion to dismiss, which was based on an alleged lack of personal jurisdiction. Duke Power argues that the court's assumption of jurisdiction, pursuant to section 48.193(1)(g),1 is erroneous since Duke Power does not conduct, nor has it ever conducted, business in Florida. We reverse.
