ORLANDO — Two Orlando property owners are suing a licensed insurer, alleging breach of an insurance contract.

Anthony S. Pace and Roseanne M. Pace filed a complaint Oct. 29 in Orange County Circuit Court against Florida Peninsula Insurance Company, alleging the licensed insurer wrongfully refused to indemnify the plaintiffs pursuant to the insurance policy.

According to the complaint, on March 20, the Pace property at 1401 Conway Isle Circle, Orlando was damaged by wind and/or hail and associated rainwater. At the time of the occurrence, the suit says, the plaintiffs' property was covered for damage caused by wind and/or hail and rainwater. 

The plaintiffs allege Florida Peninsula Insurance has failed to properly investigate and to pay benefits or to completely repair the damages to the Pace dwelling.

The Paces seek trial by jury, damages of more than $15,000, exclusive of interest, court costs and attorney fees.  They are represented by attorney Hewett G. Woodward of The Woodward Law Firm in Orlando.

Orange County Circuit Court case number 18CA011829
