v.
DOUGLAS LAPIN, APPELLEE

Fla. 3d DCA | 2007-12-12
No. 3D07-1512
Before COPE, GREEN, and WELLS, JJ.
971 So. 2d 913 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (2007) Negative Treatment
Cited by 5 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the order striking the appellant’s pleadings. Trial courts have discretion to strike a party’s pleadings or dismiss claims for fraud on the court. See Rios v. Moore, 902 So. 2d 181 (Fla. 3d DCA 2005); Storm v. Allied Universal Corp., 842 So. 2d 245 (Fla. 3d DCA 2003); O'Vahey v. Miller, 644 So. 2d 550 (Fla. 3d DCA 1994). The record before us does not support the appellant’s contention that the trial court abused its discretion in this regard.

Affirmed.

We do agree that appellant should have received credit for time served for each of his fifteen year consecutive sentences after re-trial, and that the court erred in not giving that credit.
