Asked on Oct 22nd, 2020 on Breach of Contract - Florida
More details to this question:
I contracted for a detached garage my residence (34453) with down payment $15,000. Plans were made up and agreed. No permit to build was ever issued and no physical work was ever done on property. The Citrus County Sheriff Office had case more than 18 months and decided not to prosecute. State licensing board has had information for two years and reportedly interviewed contractor but has advised me of no decision after now 2 years. $15K reflects 10 months equivalent gross social security, and no small matter.

Hard to claim fraud when two agencies find otherwise. SOL is found in Fla. Stat. 95.11.
