Eduardo ESCRIBANO, Sr., Appellant, v. LUBY CHEVROLET, INC., a Florida corporation, Appellee.
    No. 65-487.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida. Third District.
    Jan. 18, 1966.
    Bolles, Goodwin & Ryskamp, Miami, for appellant.
    Dixon, Dejarnette, Bradford, Williams, McKay & Kimbrell and Barry G. Seidel, Miami, for appellee.
    Before TILLMAN PEARSON, CARROLL and SWANN, JJ.
   SWANN, Judge.

This is an appeal from a summary final judgment entered by the trial court for the defendant, Luby Chevrolet, Inc., in a negligence action. The plaintiff, Eduardo Escribano, Sr., a business invitee of the defendant, walked into a fixed, clear, glass panel adjacent to a glass door, and received injuries as a result.

We find from an examination of the record, exhibits and briefs that a genuine issue of material fact existed as to the questions of negligence and contributory negligence which should be resolved by a jury trial. Messina v. Baldi, Fla.App.1960, 120 So.2d 819; Humphrys v. Jarrell, Fla.App.1958, 104 So.2d 404.

The summary final judgment is therefore reversed and the cause remanded for action consistent herewith.

Reversed and remanded.
