S16 S2d 924, 925 (Fla)
-
See State v City of Lakeland, 16 S2d 924, 925 (Fla 1944) (en banc) (holding that a city's pledge of "'full faith, funds, property, credit, and resources' did "no more, in legal effect, than express an undertaking by the city to be irrevocably obligated, in good faith, to use such of its resources and taxing power as may be authorized or required by law for the full and prompt payment of the principal and interest of the obligation"). The court's conception of an "undertaking", especially modified by the "good faith" limitation, arguably falls short of an absolute promise of payment.
