[October 25, 2017]
Consolidated appeals and cross-appeal of non-final and final orders
from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward
County; John Thomas Luzzo, Judge; L.T. Case No. CACE 09-053431 (09).
Alexander D. Brown of The Concept Law Group, P.A., Fort Lauderdale,
for appellant/cross-appellee.
E. Scott Golden of Golden Law, Fort Lauderdale, for appellee/cross-
appellant.
PER CURIAM.
We agree with appellant Earl Shannon that the final judgment is
ambiguous in that it appears to create a double recovery from both Earl
Shannon, individually and the estate of his mother, Starr T. Shannon.
Appellee H & R Hydro-Pull, Inc. is entitled to recover a total of $17,043.54
in principal jointly from Earl Shannon, individually, and Starr T.
Shannon’s estate. H & R cannot recover the same damages twice. We
remand that portion of the final judgment to clarify that Earl Shannon,
individually and Earl Shannon, as the Personal Representative of the
Estate of Starr T. Shannon, are jointly liable for $17,043.54.
We reverse the order granting summary final judgment to the
defendants on H & R’s lien foreclosure action. The claim of lien was
recorded October 1, 2008. The trial court granted summary judgment on
the ground that the lien was not filed within 90 days of H & R’s final
furnishing of labor, services, or materials. See § 713.08(5), Fla. Stat.
(2008). The facts on summary judgment are viewed in the light most
favorable to the non-moving party. Viewed under this standard, H & R did
not complete performance of the contract until it submitted all
documentation required by the Town of Davie in August or September,
2008. Using either date, the lien was timely recorded.
On the issues of prejudgment interest and attorney’s fees against the
estate, it does not appear that, apart from pleading for these things, H &
R filed a motion seeking those items in the circuit court. Thus it waived
its entitlement to these items. See Tribeca Lending Corp. v. Real Estate
Depot, Inc., 42 So. 3d 258, 264 (Fla. 4th DCA 2010) (claim for prejudgment
interest was waived when raised for the first time on appeal).
We have considered the other issues raised on appeal and find them to
be without legal merit.
Affirmed in part; reversed in part and remanded.
GROSS, CIKLIN and KLINGENSMITH, JJ., concur.

Not final until disposition of timely filed motion for rehearing.
