Synopsis

This case involves a procedural maneuver where an appellate court, after initially reversing a lower court's judgment, was compelled to affirm that judgment following a Supreme Court decision that quashed the appellate court's reversal. The Supreme Court's intervention effectively reinstated the original circuit court ruling.


Holding

The District Court of Appeal affirmed the judgment of the circuit court. The appellate court's prior judgment of reversal was vacated, and its earlier mandate was withdrawn.
