DANIEL LOPEZ PINO, APPELLANT,
v.
ROBERT A. LOPEZ ET AL., APPELLEES

Fla. 3d DCA | 1978-07-05
Nos. 77-1847, 77-2231
Before PEARSON, HUBBART and KE-HOE, JJ.
361 So. 2d 192 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1978) Caution
Cited by 39 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

These appeals are from the same summary final judgment for the defendants. This issue involved was whether a check issued and cashed in “Full and final payment for all goods, services and claims to date” was an accord and satisfaction. Plaintiff’s affidavit in opposition to the motion for summary judgment was insufficient as a matter of law because it alleged conclusions of law without supporting facts. Cf. Freeman v. Equilease Corporation, 346 So. 2d 619 (Fla. 3d DCA 1977); and Sherman v. Weintraub, 132 So. 2d 421 (Fla. 3d DCA 1961). The defendant was entitled to a judgment as a matter of law. See Miller-Dunn Co. v. Green, 154 Fla. 72, 16 So. 2d 637 (1944).

Affirmed.
