CHASE LINCOLN FIRST BANK v. BORINQUEN, LTD.

No. 86-105.

494 So.2d 295 (1986)

CHASE LINCOLN FIRST BANK, N.A. F/K/a Lincoln First Bank, N.A., Appellant, v. BORINQUEN, LTD., Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

September 23, 1986.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Trenam, Simmons, Kemker, Scharf, Barkin, Frye & O'Neill and William A. Fragetta and Dale Webner, Tampa, for appellant.

Stewart, Tilghman, Fox & Bianchi and James Tilghman, Miami, for appellee.

Before BARKDULL, BASKIN and FERGUSON, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

Section 620.30, Florida Statutes (1985)1 clearly provides that a limited partnership may be named as a party to a proceeding and that service shall be accomplished upon its general partner. This does not prevent the general partner from also being named as party to a cause. We therefore reverse the order under review dismissing Borinquen, Ltd., as a party defendant in the trial court.
