  1. AGO

    2003-34 (Ops. Fla. Atty. Gen. Jul. 18, 2003)
    Sections 402.301 — 402.319, Florida Statutes
  2. AGO

    2003-15 (Ops. Fla. Atty. Gen. Apr. 30, 2003)
    You state that the Pinellas County License Board for Children's Centers and Family Day Care Homes is a local licensing agency subject to the provisions of Chapter 402, Florida Statutes, which generally governs the provision of health and human services. Sections 402.301 — 402.319, Florida Statutes, operate
  3. AGO

    85-74 (Ops. Fla. Atty. Gen. Sep. 9, 1985)
    Section 402.302(4), F.S., as amended by Chs. 84-551 and 85-54, Laws of Florida, defines "child care facility" for purposes of ss. 402.301- 402.319, F.S., as amended, as:
  4. Anderson v. Dept. of H R. Services

    482 So. 2d 491 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1986)   Cited 6 times
    On this appeal, we review the legality of a summary order issued by the Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS) requiring the emergency suspension of appellant Anderson's license to operate a child care facility regulated by sections 402.301- 402.319, Florida Statutes (1985). The emergency order took effect immediately, causing appellant to cease operations and close the facility. Consequently, we have ordered this appeal expedited.

  5. Ristow v. Threadneedle Ins. Co.

    583 N.W.2d 452 (Wis. Ct. App. 1998)   Cited 7 times
    We reject the Ristows' remaining contentions that (1) Threadneedle's duty is similar to the delivery responsibility imposed in the commercial goods setting, § 402.319(1)(b), STATS.; (2) "[g]iven the similarity between breach of contract claims and torts involving purely economic injuries . . . the place of economic harm should be afforded weight in adjudicating borrowing statute issues in the contract setting"; (3) principles of equity and fairness favor their position; and (4) a decision in favor of Threadneedle will encourage forum shopping. First, this is a breach of contract case, not a sale involving goods. A contract is a series of mutual promises and a breach is a failure to complete a promise. See Erickson Oil Prods., Inc. v. State, 184 Wis.2d 36, 49-50, 516 N.W.2d 755, 759 (Ct.App. 1994). Here, Threadneedle promised to settle the Ristows' claims and Threadneedle failed to fulfill that promise. Chapter 402, STATS., applies only to transactions in goods and is inapplicable to this case. See § 402.102, STATS.

  6. Melrose Intern, Etc. v. Patrick Cudahy Inc.

    482 F. Supp. 1369 (E.D. Wis. 1980)   Cited 2 times
    If PCI met its responsibilities under this contract, there would be no breach thereof. Under the UCC, the term F.A.S. translates to "free alongside" and requires the seller ". . . [a]t his own expense and risk to deliver the goods alongside the vessel in the manner usual in that port or on a dock designated and provided by the buyer." Wis.Stat. § 402.319.

  7. Royster-Clark, Inc. v. Olsen's Mill, Inc.

    2005 WI App. 176 (Wis. Ct. App. 2005)
    FOB is a delivery term requiring a seller (here Royster) to ship goods to a designated point and bear the expense and risk of putting them into the possession of the carrier. See WIS. STAT. § 402.319(1)(a) (2003-04). Apparently, neither party vigorously enforced this particular term of the contract; as it appears, Olsen's Mill agreed to pick up the nitrogen fertilizer at one of Royster's facilities.
  8. Calhoun v. Department of Health & Rehabilitative Services

    500 So. 2d 674 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1987)   Cited 4 times
    "The state minimum standards shall be designed to protect the health, sanitation, safety, and well-being of all children under care by ensuring competent personnel, adequate physical surroundings, and healthful food. All standards established under ss. 402.301- 402.319 shall be consistent with rules promulgated by the State Fire Marshal for child care facilities. The minimum standards for child care facilities shall include the following areas:

  9. AGO

    91-97 (Ops. Fla. Atty. Gen. Dec. 18, 1991)
    Section 402.313(1), F.S. (1990 Supp.), provides that family day care homes hall be licensed under ss. 402.301- 402.319, F.S., if:
  10. Milwaukee Valve Co. v. Mishawaka Brass Manufacturing, Inc.

    319 N.W.2d 885 (Wis. Ct. App. 1982)   Cited 5 times
    We have carefully reviewed the record, and conclude that Milwaukee Valve produced sufficient evidence to prove that no expenses were saved by Mishawaka's breach. When a buyer covers, by definition the goods bought in substitution are used to meet an essential need, and therefore the buyer is not relieved from performing and does not save any performance expenses by the sellers breach. Expenses saved, if any, in cases of cover will more likely occur when the shipping terms of the cover contract differ from those in the original contract. See R. Summer's J. White, supra, sec. 6-3, at 217. In this case the shipping terms result in no savings to Milwaukee Valve. At trial Milwaukee Valve produced the cover contract and the contract with Mishawaka. Both require shipping to be "F.O.B. Del'd." Section 402.319 (1) (b), Stats., provides that when a shipping term is F.O.B. the place of destination, as opposed to the place of shipment, the seller must bear the shipping expense.
