District Court of Appeal of Florida

In a dispute between funeral homes over the use of defendant's name for business purposes, an order modifying a temporary injunction in favor of plaintiff is reversed as to certain portions of the order and remanded for modification where a trial court abused its discretion as to restrictions on defendant's right to use his name in identifying himself as the licensed funeral director of a funeral home, whether in advertising or signage, and in determining that defendant could not use his name in the URL for his website.
