Harvey v. Fischer , 424 So. 2d 211 ( 1983 )


Menu:
  • PER CURIAM.

    A claim for damages for wrongful attachment cannot be prosecuted by a counterclaim in the same suit in which the attachment was obtained. Calcagni v. Mamber, 262 So.2d 467 (Fla. 3d DCA 1971); Martin v. Martin, 196 So.2d 26 (Fla. 2d DCA 1967); Ritter v. Miami Marine Agency, Inc., 133 So.2d 107 (Fla. 3d DCA 1961).

    Therefore, we reverse the determination of wrongful attachment without prejudice to appellee to seek relief in a new suit.

    The judgment is affirmed in all other respects.

    BOARDMAN, A.C.J., and GRIMES and SCHOONOVER, JJ., concur.
