Grape Leaf Capital, Inc., Appellant, v. Nathaly Lafontant, Clement R. Dean, Jr., and Clement R. Dean, Jr., P.A., Appellees. (2025)

After an adverse jury verdict and final judgment, Appellant Grape Leaf Capital, Inc. challenges the denial of its motion for summary judgment and motion for new trial. Because the trial court denied the motion for summary judgment due to a genuine dispute of material fact, that dispute was tried before a jury, and the evidence supports the jury's verdict, any error in denying the motion for summary judgment is moot and rendered harmless. Devolro Inc. v. Kungeibayev, 407 So. 3d 1252, 1254 (Fla. 3d DCA 2025); Sunrise Lakes Condo. Apts. Phase III, Inc. 5 v. Frank, 73 So. 3d 901, 901 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011). Likewise, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in denying the motion for new trial. See Graham Cos. v. Amado, 305 So. 3d 572, 578 (Fla. 3d DCA 2020). It was within the jury's province to resolve the conflicting factual disputes at trial. Weatherly v. Louis, 31 So. 3d 803, 805–06 (Fla. 3d DCA 2009). Accordingly, we affirm in all respects.¹

Affirmed.
