Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM. Musarrat Batool (“Ms. Batool”), Syed Ibrahim Hussain (“Mr. Ibrahim”),

and Syed Muhammad Baqir Hussain (“Mr. Baqir”) appeal the “Final

Judgment as to Unlawful Detainer” in favor of Prime International Properties

Duval, LLC. We dismiss the appeal as to Mr. Ibrahim and Mr. Baqir, as they

were not parties to the trial court proceedings. See, e.g., Edwards v. CIT

Bank, N.A., 306 So. 3d 217, 219 (Fla. 3d DCA 2020) (“[A] non-party in the

lower tribunal is a stranger to the record and, therefore, lacks standing to

appeal an order entered by the lower tribunal.” (citations omitted)). As to Ms.

Batool, we affirm the final judgment.

AFFIRMED in part; DISMISSED in part. SASSO, NARDELLA and WOZNIAK, JJ., concur.
