HERSEY, C.J., and WALDEN and GUNTHER, JJ., concur.
525 So. 2d 518 Florida District Court of Appeal, Fourth District (1988) Negative Treatment
Cited by 9 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We determine that the "Order On Motion For Summary Judgment” which merely granted motions for summary judgment is a non-final, non-appealable order and as such the appeal must be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Palardy v. Igrec, 388 So. 2d 1053 (Fla. 4th DCA 1980); Pompano Paint Co. v. Pompano Beach Bank and Trust Co., 208 So. 2d 152 (Fla. 4th DCA 1968).

We deny the request for relinquishment of jurisdiction so that the trial court may enter a final judgment which will be appealable. Russell v. Russell, 507 So. 2d 661 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987). See also Johnson v. First Bank of Gainesville, 491 So. 2d 1217 (Fla. 1st DCA 1986).

APPEAL DISMISSED.

HERSEY, C.J., and WALDEN and GUNTHER, JJ., concur.

In White Palms of Palm Beach, Inc. v. Fox, 525 So. 2d 518 (Fla. 4th DCA 1988), we applied this concept to an order which granted motions for summary judgment. We recede from the second aspect of Russell and now hold that where an appeal has been filed prematurely in cases such as this one the appeal will…
