Service Station Aid, Inc. v. National Hose Co.

The trial judge found: “ * * * it was stipulated that the Third-Party Defendant was engaged only in solicitation within the State of Florida through its non-resident representative. iji * Based upon this stipulation the court dismissed the complaint. We affirm. See MacInnes v. Fontainebleau Hotel Corp., 257 F.2d 832, 834 (2nd Cir. 1958) ; cf. Lake v. Lucayan Beach Hotel Company, Fla.App.1965, 172 So.2d 260. Affirmed.
