NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT the Division of Florida Condominiums, Timeshares, and Mobile Homes, Department of Business and Professional Regulation, State of Florida, has declined to rule on the petition for declaratory statement filed by Vince Rhodes, Petitioner, In Re: Rhodes Marine Sales on May 07, 2009. The following is a summary of the agency's declination of the petition:
The division declined to issue a declaratory statement because a declaratory statement cannot be issued where it would affect the rights of a third person, who is not a party to the proceeding; or the division declines to adopt legal concepts of agency and real estate licensing law and incorporate them into Chapter 326, Florida Statutes; or the interpretation of contracts is strictly a judicial function and is more properly addressed by a court.
A copy of the Order Declining of the Petition for Declaratory Statement may be obtained by contacting: Division Clerk, Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Florida Condominiums, Timeshares, and Mobile Homes, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2217.
Please refer all comments to: Janis Sue Richardson, Chief Assistant General Counsel, Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Division of Florida Condominiums, Timeshares, and Mobile Homes, 1940 North Monroe Street, Tallahassee, Florida 32399-2202.
