Fla. 3d DCA | 1989-01-31
No. 88-1808
Before NESBITT, FERGUSON and LEVY, JJ.
537 So. 2d 1113 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1989) Positive Treatment
Cited by 7 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

The plaintiff failed to produce for admission into evidence the original copy of a negotiable promissory instrument as is expressly required by section 90.953(1), Florida Statutes (1987). For this reason, the final judgment of foreclosure is vacated with directions for the trial court to receive the original promissory note in evidence, after which it will be authorized to reconfirm the final judgment of foreclosure and all subject proceedings which occurred thereto.

The remaining points advanced by the appellant are without merit.

The final judgment is vacated and remanded with directions.
