Head Matter:
Christopher SHOLLY, Appellant, v. DISC VILLAGE, INC., d/b/a Greenville Hills Academy, Appellee.
No. 1D08-5560.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
July 24, 2009.
Richard W. Reno, Crawfordville, for Appellant.
David A. Cornell and Jeremy L. Dub-yak, Jacksonville, for Appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The trial court dismissed Appellant's complaint upon a motion to dismiss for failure to state a cause of action and upon an allegation that the claim was barred by the statute of limitations.
The complaint adequately pled a claim for negligent hiring and further alleged a valid basis for delayed discovery of the tort. The fact specific basis for this statute of limitations defense could not be resolved on a motion to dismiss.
The case is reversed and remanded to the trial court for further proceedings.
BARFIELD, PADOVANO, and LEWIS, JJ., concur.
