PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the final order dismissing the plaintiffs’ complaint. Cate v. Oldham, 450 So. 2d 224 (Fla.1984); Cypher v. Segal, 501 So. 2d 112 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987). However, the final order awarding attorney’s fees pursuant to section 57.105, Florida Statutes, is reversed. See Whitten v. Progressive Casualty Insurance Co., 410 So. 2d 501 (Fla.1982); Jones v. Charles, 518 So. 2d 445 (Fla. 4th DCA 1988).

The final judgment was affirmed in Jaye because of Cypher and River Bend Marine, Inc. v. Sailing Assocs., Inc., 539 So. 2d 507 (Fla. 4th DCA 1989).
