Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Florida

Plaintiff (buyer) us suing Defendant (seller) and me. I exercised my Right of First Refusal as granted to me by the Association. The seller entered into a Contract for Purchase and Sale of Unit with the Plaintiff. The seller, prior to entering into any contract is supposed to go before the Association to see if anyone is interested in purchasing under the same terms as a 3rd party. The seller DID NOT follow by-law rules and entered into contract with the Plaintiff.

In exercising my Right of First Refusal, I accidentally wrote:

ABC Condominium Association LLC instead of ABC Condominium Association Inc.

The Plaintiff wants to purchse the unit and claims that I have no standing b/c I wrote LLC instead of Inc. Does the Plaintiff have a case against me? Does the Plaintiff have any recourse against me for fees and/or damages? Do I have any recourse against the Plaintiff for fees and/or damages?

This is a HUGE area of litigation right now in FL. The wrong name of a party should not void the contract. You need your attorney to sort through the rest.
