PER CURIAM.
Appellant, Koslovsky Realty, Inc. (“KRI”), appeals an adverse final judgment denying it a real estate commission from the seller of a condominium unit, and awarding attorney’s fees to the buyer. We reverse.
The only brokerage relationship involving KRI was with the sellers, appellees Alvin and Marilyn Losek (“Loseks”). There was no brokerage arrangement between KRI and appellee, Selma Milgrim (“Milgrim”), and thus no basis for the trial court’s finding that the Loseks were relieved of liability. Because KRI was the procuring cause of the sale, it was entitled to commission. See Sheldon Greene & Associates, Inc. v. Rosinda Investments, N.V., 475 So. 2d 925 (Fla. 3d DCA 1985), review dismissed, 502 So. 2d 421 (Fla. 1987).
Accordingly, we reverse and remand for entry of judgment in favor of KRI against Milgrim and Losek in all respects. Our decision does not preclude the parties from pursuing any claims for indemnification.
Reversed and remanded with directions.

This ground involves general due process concerns and is not confined to a defense raised by the defendant. Miller v. State, 729 So. 2d 417, 419 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999). “Florida courts have ordered the disclosure of a confidential informant where such was deemed essential in order to guarantee the defendant his due process right to a fair trial,” including the defendant’s right “to confron…

Smith v. State, 801 So. 2d 198 (Fla. 4th DCA 2001)…decide the issue on appeal. On similar facts, where the state used a Cl and a trial court refused to order the officer to disclose the Cl’s identity, we have reversed. See, e.g., Styles v. State, 780 So. 2d 1040 (Fla. 4th DCA 2001); Miller v. State, 729 So. 2d 417 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999). In Miller, no one could locate the Cl, but the court erroneously denied a motion to disclose because it mistakenly believed that the relevance of the Cl’s identity was speculative in light of the officer being a witness to the t…
