• Chrysler Leasing Corp. v. Passacantilli, 259 So. 2d 1 (Fla. 1972)
  …noticing the motion [to produce] for hearing was not a step taken in good faith . . . , it was sufficient, when done before the motion to dismiss for want of prosecution, to protect against dismissal.” (Emphasis supplied) Accord, Knowles v. Gilbert, 208 So. 2d 660 (Fla.App.3rd, 1968) and Beigel v. Simon, 210 So. 2d 473 (Fla.App. 3rd, 1968). .The complete series of procedural maneuvers at the trial level may thus be summarized as follows: 1.

• Nationsbank, N.A. v. Ziner, 726 So. 2d 364 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999)
  …cant record activity occurred. Because the provisions of Rule 1.420(e) are not self-actuating, the court should not have dismissed the case for failure to prosecute in 1998, even though it arguably could have done so in 1994. See Knowles v. Gilbert, 208 So. 2d 660 (Fla. 3d DCA 1968); Dolan v. Hartford Ins. Co. of the Southeast, 566 So. 2d 316, 317 (Fla. 4th DCA 1990), rev. den., 577 So. 2d 1326 (Fla.1991).

  …rosecute. Under these circumstances, that motion seems to be an act of prosecution which resets the one-year clock. Liuzzo v. Crapo, 504 So. 2d 480 (Fla. 1st DCA 1987); Kinsey v. Skyline Corp., 395 So. 2d 626 (Fla. 1st DCA 1981); Knowles v. Gilbert, 208 So. 2d 660 (Fla. 3d DCA 1968). We believe that this case is distinguishable from Barnett Bank of East Polk County v. Fleming, 508 So. 2d 718 (Fla.1987). There the Florida Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether a movant's premature motion to dismiss const…
