Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Morris Katz, Miami, for appellant.

Powers, McNalis, Moody & Groelle and David F. Aversa, Lake Worth, for appellee.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and FLETCHER and SHEVIN, JJ.


PER CURIAM.

We reverse the dismissal of plaintiff's complaint for failure to serve defendant within the 120-day period required under Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.070(i). The record reflects that plaintiff demonstrated "good cause" for failure to serve defendant. See Hernandez v. Page, 580 So.2d 793 (Fla. 3d DCA 1991). In this case, as in Carlton v. Wal-Mart Stores, Inc., 621 So.2d 451
