MOMPOINT v. WACHOVIA MORTGAGE CORPORATION (2026)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

Noah MOMPOINT, Appellant, v. WACHOVIA MORTGAGE CORPORATION, Appellee.

No. 4D2025-0787

Decided: July 22, 2026

Eduardo A. Maura and Luis F. Quesada of Ayala Law, P.A., Miami, for appellant. Alan M. Pierce of Liebler Gonzalez & Portuondo, Miami, for appellee.

Noah Mompoint appeals from the trial court's entry of summary judgment for appellee, contending that the trial court erred in determining his claims were barred by collateral estoppel and the economic loss rule. Although we agree that Mompoint's claims were not barred by the economic loss rule, we affirm on the basis of collateral estoppel. See Mortg. Electronic Registration Sys., Inc. v. Badra, 991 So. 2d 1037, 1039 (Fla. 4th DCA 2008) (“Collateral estoppel precludes re-litigating an issue where the same issue has been fully litigated by the same parties or their privies, and a final decision has been rendered by a court.”).

Affirmed.

Per Curiam.

Klingensmith, Shepherd and Lott, JJ., concur.
