Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
The defendants’ failure twice to satisfactorily answer the plaintiffs’ interrogatories did not justify striking their pleadings and entering a default against them. See Summit Chase Condominium Ass’n v. Protean Investors, Inc., 421 So. 2d 562 (Fla. 3d DCA 1982). Accordingly, the orders under review are reversed without prejudice to consideration of any appropriate lesser sanction.
