KC Quality Care, LLC a/a/o Mecene Hercule (“KC Quality”) appeals the order granting Direct General Insurance Companys Motion to Dismiss the complaint with prejudice. KC Quality argues that the trial court violated procedural rules by relying on a default judgment from a separate case to grant the dismissal. We agree.
It is well-established that when considering a motion to dismiss a complaint, trial courts are confined to the allegations contained within the four corners of the complaint and must accept all well-pled allegations as true. Deutsche Bank Natl Tr. Co. v. Lippi, 78 So. 3d 81, 84 (Fla. 5th DCA 2012). Therefore, the trial courts reliance on a judgment from a separate case that was not attached to KC Qualitys complaint or incorporated by reference was error. See KC Quality Care, LLC v. Direct Gen. Ins. Co., ––– So.3d ––––, 47 Fla. L. Weekly D1615, 2022 WL 3007767 (Fla. 5th DCA July 29, 2022). We reverse and remand for further proceedings.
REVERSED and REMANDED.
