BOCA RATON, FL (Boca Post) (Copyright © 2026) — JAROPHIN INVESTMENT, INC. v. AKA BOCA 01, LLC, et al., Case No. 502026CA000249XXXAMB (Div. AN), was filed Jan. 8, 2026, in the Circuit Court of the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit in and for Palm Beach County, Florida, according to a civil complaint.

In the filing, Jarophin Investment, Inc. identifies itself as the owner and landlord of commercial property located at 555 N. Federal Highway, Units/Suites #5–#6, Boca Raton, Florida 33432. The complaint names AKA BOCA 01, LLC as a defendant, along with four individuals: Karen Armando Cohen, Andres Garcia, Alberto Struvlovic, and Alfredo Enrique Keri Zeppenfeldt.

The complaint alleges the dispute arises from a written Business Lease executed on or about Nov. 23, 2020, covering the premises. Jarophin alleges the lease term was five years, beginning Dec. 1, 2020, and ending Nov. 30, 2025. The filing states the lease required monthly payments and references a claimed total monthly amount of $5,409.96.

Boca Post has learned that the business operating at 555 N. Federal Highway, Suites #5–#6, is Mister O1 Extraordinary Pizza. The restaurant’s location at the address is publicly listed on Google Maps and on the company’s official website. The complaint itself identifies the premises by address and does not name the business as a party.

Jarophin alleges that after the lease term ended, the defendants remained in possession of the premises and did not surrender the space. The complaint characterizes the defendants as holdover occupants and alleges they refused to vacate.

The lawsuit asserts three counts: (1) Ejectment, (2) Breach of Contract and Damages, and (3) Claim for Payment of Double Rent. In the ejectment count, the plaintiff seeks possession of the premises and issuance of a writ of possession, referencing Florida’s summary procedure provisions applicable to certain landlord-tenant disputes. In the breach of contract count, Jarophin alleges the defendants failed to comply with lease obligations, including alleged payment-related defaults, and seeks damages and other relief permitted under the lease and Florida law.

In the double-rent count, the plaintiff alleges that, as holdover occupants, the defendants owe double rent under the lease and Florida law. The complaint references $10,819.92 as an unpaid double-rent amount and seeks recovery of that sum along with related relief.

The complaint also discusses a lease renewal provision that, according to the filing, required landlord approval. Jarophin alleges it did not approve a renewal and that notice of non-renewal was provided. The filing further references a prior lawsuit identified as Case No. 502025CA006675XXXAMB, which the plaintiff alleges was dismissed without prejudice.

Among the remedies requested, Jarophin seeks possession of the property, monetary damages, and an award of attorney’s fees and costs, along with any other relief the court deems appropriate. The complaint includes a demand for jury trial.

All allegations are claims made by the plaintiff and have not been proven in court. The original complaint can be accessed on the Palm Beach County Clerk of Court website.
