DONALD E. HALPIN, APPELLANT,
v.
SHERIFF JOHN M. SHORT AND PASCO COUNTY COMMISSION, APPELLEES

Fla. 2d DCA | 1986-05-16
No. 85-1919
SCHEB, A.C.J., and DANAHY and SANDERLIN, JJ., concur.
490 So. 2d 1271 Florida District Court of Appeal, Second District (1986) Caution
Cited by 5 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant argues the trial court erred in dismissing his suit against appellees with prejudice. His complaint was dismissed because he failed to allege compliance with the notice provisions of section 768.28(6), Florida Statutes (1983). By the time the dismissal was entered, the limitations period for providing such notice had expired. Thus, dismissal with prejudice was proper since appellant was unable to furnish the required notice and amend his complaint to allege compliance with section 768.28(6). Levine v. Dade County School Board, 442 So. 2d 210 (Fla.1983); Commercial Carrier Corp. v. Indian River County, 372 So. 2d 1022 (Fla. 3d DCA 1979). Moreover, appellant’s estoppel argument is raised for the first time and is not supported by any allegations contained in the complaint.

Accordingly, we affirm the trial court’s order. SCHEB, A.C.J., and DANAHY and SANDERLIN, JJ., concur.
