Bankers Multiple Line Ins. Co. v. Farish, 464 So. 2d 530 (Fla. 1985)…NALD, Justice. We accepted this case because Farish v. Bankers Multiple Line Insurance Co., 425 So. 2d 12 (Fla. 4th DCA 1982), which reverses the trial judge’s order granting a new trial, conflicts with Arab Termite & Pest Control, Inc. v.
