  • Polk v. Crittenden, 537 So. 2d 156 (Fla. 5th DCA 1989)
    …ourts require that proof of an oral agreement which varies the terms of a written document must be “clear, precise and indubitable” before the parol evidence rule may be lifted. Healy v. Atwater, 269 So. 2d 753, 755 (Fla. 3d DCA 1972), cert. denied, 275 So. 2d 537 (Fla.1973), quoting Mallard v. Ewing, 121 Fla. 654, 164 So. 674 (1935). In our view, Crittenden’s proofs do not rise to this level, even had they been presented at trial. Further, the supreme court stated in Mallard that the trier of fact must find…

    …b). City of Winter Haven v. Tuttle/White Constructors, Inc., 370 So. 2d 829, 832 (Fla. 2d DCA 1979). We affirm the court’s denial of Noonan’s motion for additur on the authority of Healy v. Atwater, 269 So. 2d 753 (Fla. 3d DCA 1972), cert. denied, 275 So. 2d 537 (Fla.1973). We have considered the parties’ remaining arguments and find that they are without merit.
