Before BASKIN, LEVY and GERSTEN, JJ.
595 So. 2d 305 Florida District Court of Appeal, Third District (1992) Positive Treatment
Cited by 2 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We reverse the order denying the motion to vacate default filed by defendants Thaw, Gopman & Assoc., P.A., and Ronald Thaw. Under the circumstances of this case, the submission of motions to modify a stay and to dismiss the complaint instead of an answer as provided in the trial court’s order does not merit entry of a default. Joseph v. Marese, 534 So. 2d 920 (Fla. 3d DCA 1988); Techno Indus. Corp. v. Cooper Indus., Inc., 410 So. 2d 584 (Fla. 3d DCA 1982).

Reversed and remanded.
