PER CURIAM.
Appellant, the defendant in the trial court, appeals (1) an interlocutory judgment determining appellee’s right to an accounting; and (2) a final judgment in favor of appellee for money damages, attorney’s fees and costs. No answer brief has been filed on behalf of appellee.
We hold that the trial court erred in denying appellant’s motion for leave to amend its answer and affirmative defenses at a point in time when this case was not scheduled for trial and appellee would not have been prejudiced by the amendment. Bill Williams Air Conditioning & Heating, Inc. v. Haymarket Cooperative Bank, 592 So. 2d 302 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991), rev. dismissed, 598 So. 2d 76 (Fla.1992); Wackenhut Protective Sys., Inc. v. Key Biscayne Commodore Club Condominium I, Inc., 350 So. 2d 1150 (Fla. 3d DCA 1977). Appellant has raised other points on appeal related to the trial which we need not determine in view of our ruling on the first point.
Reversed and remanded for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.
LETTS and POLEN, JJ., and ALDERMAN, JAMES E., Senior Justice, concur.

State v. Barrio, 619 So. 2d 389 (Fla. 1st DCA 1993)…his purpose in being on 1-75 at 10:00 p.m. with a drug-sniffing dog in his car was to locate drugs. We reverse. Appellees’ vehicle was “clocked” at 73 miles per hour in a 65 mile-per-hour zone. They do not dispute that fact. In Springle v. State, 613 So. 2d 65 (Fla. 4th DCA1993) (en banc), the court stated that a stop for speeding 73 miles per hour in a 65 mile-per-hour zone was not pretextual, holding that “[i]f the speed limit is 65 m.p.h., then a stop is lawful at any speed in excess of that figure.” T…

Boyer v. State, 736 So. 2d 64 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999)…rivacy and whether society recognizes that expectation as reasonable. See State v. Smith, 641 So. 2d 849 (Fla.1994)(citing Katz v. United States, 389 U.S. 347, 88 S.Ct. 507, 19 L.Ed.2d 576 (1967)(Harlan, J., concurring)); see also Springle v. State, 613 So. 2d 65 (Fla. 4th DCA 1993). Patently, here, Boyer had no subjective expectation of privacy and the record of the conduct of Boyer and his sister-in-law during the conversation supports the trial court’s finding to that effect. “A trial court’s ruling on a…
