District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

Rehearing Denied February 16, 2007.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Bard D. Rockenbach of Burlington & Rockenbach, P.A., West Palm Beach, and Jeffrey M. Liggio and Jene P. Williams-Rhoads of Liggio, Benrubi & Williams, P.A., West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Caryn L. Bellus and Sharon C. Degnan of Kubicki Draper, Miami, for appellee.


TAYLOR, J.

This case concerns an action on a consent judgment entered against the insured, Bella Marine, under a workers' compensation policy. We find that the trial court erred when it held as a matter of law that the insurer, appellee, American Interstate, of a pending action by Ordones, appellant, against Bella Marine after appellee had repudiated the contract. Therefore, we reverse the trial court's order granting summary judgment in favor of appellee.
