Rehearing Denied May 14, 1991.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Solms & Price, and Susan M. Nungesser, Miami, for appellant.

Magill & Lewis, and R. Fred Lewis, Miami, for appellee.

Before JORGENSON, COPE and GODERICH, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

The defendant, the District Board of Trustees of Miami Dade Community College [MDCC], appeals an adverse judgment for $325,000.00 in which MDCC was found negligent for providing inadequate security on its campus. We affirm.

MDCC contends that the trial court lacked jurisdiction to try this case and to enter a final judgment because MDCC is immune from suit. MDCC relies on Relyea v. State, 385 So.2d 1378
