Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
We accepted jurisdiction to review Gaines v. Department of Children & Families, 711 So. 2d 190 (Fla. 5th DCA 1998), in order to resolve what appeared to be express and direct conflict with Padgett v. Department of Health & Rehabilitative Services, 577 So. 2d 565 (Fla. 1991). See Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. However, upon closer examination, we find no conflict and that review was improvidently granted. Accordingly, we dismiss the petition.
It is so ordered.
