Citation30 So.2d 100,158 Fla. 736
PartiesELLIS et al. v. STRICKLAND et al.
CourtFlorida Supreme Court

Appeal from Circuit Court, Duval County; Bryan Simpson, judge.

Thomas B. Adams, of Jacksonville, for appellants.

Frank T. Cannon, of Jacksonville, for Hohn Strickland et al., appellees.

Howell, McCarthy, Lane & Howell, of Jacksonville, for Springfield Atlantic Bank, appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Whereas it appears that in the final decree the name of 'John Stallings' is used where the name 'John Strickland' should have been used, it is directed that the final decree be modified by inserting the name 'John Strickland' where the name 'John Stallings' was inadvertently used.

The decree when so modified is affirmed on authority of our opinion and judgment in Partin v. Tucker, 126 Fla. 817, 172 So. 89.

So ordered.

THOMAS, C. J., and BUFORD, ADAMS, and BARNS, JJ., concur.
