George SEAMAN, Appellant/Cross Appellee, v. William ZANK and The Hartford Accident and Indemnity Company, Appellees/Cross Appellants.
    No. 78-425.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    May 21, 1980.
    Rehearing Denied July 18,1980.
    Martin J. Sperry of Krathen & Sperry, Fort Lauderdale, Susan Goldman, Miami; and Glass, Rastatter, Stark & Tarlowe, Fort Lauderdale, for appellant/cross appellee.
    K. P. Jones, Fort Lauderdale, for ap-pellees/cross appellants.
   MOORE, Judge.

This cause is affirmed. See Baptist Memorial Hospital, Inc. v. Bell, 384 So.2d 145 (Fla.1980); Weems v. Dawson, 352 So.2d 1196 (Fla. 4th DCA 1977), cert. denied, 359 So.2d 1221 (Fla.1978). Although we would prefer a more definitive rule, we cannot say that reasonable men would not differ as to the action taken by the trial judge in granting a motion for new trial. Therefore, the appellant has failed to demonstrate an abuse of discretion.

AFFIRMED.

LETTS, C. J., and SPENCER C. CROSS, Associate Judge, concur.
