The Florida Senate

680.514  Waiver of lessee's objections.--

(1)  In rejecting goods, a lessee's failure to state a particular defect that is ascertainable by reasonable inspection precludes the lessee from relying on the defect:

(a)  To justify rejection or to establish default if, stated seasonably, the lessor or the supplier could have cured it (s. 680.513); or

(b)  To justify rejection or to establish default between merchants if the lessor or the supplier after rejection has made a request in writing for a full and final written statement of all defects on which the lessee proposes to rely.

(2)  A lessee's failure to reserve rights when paying rent or other consideration against documents precludes recovery of the payment for defects apparent on the face of the documents.
