Opinion
Case No. 1D00-1287.
Opinion filed June 1, 2000.
An appeal from the Circuit Court for Alachua County, R. A. Green, Jr., Judge.
Joseph W. Little, Gainesville, for Appellants.
Toby S. Monaco of Monaco, Monaco Birder, Gainesville, William E. Kuntz of Smith, Hulsey Busey, Jacksonville, Robert Ott, Gainesville, Robert C. Widman, Venice, for Appellees.
Having considered appellants' response to the court's order dated April 24, 2000, the court has determined that because the order merely grants a motion for summary judgment and does not actually enter a judgment, the order is not an appealable order. See Dixon v. Allstate Ins. Co, 609 So.2d 71 (Fla. 1st DCA 1992). Thus, the court does not have jurisdiction and the appeal is hereby dismissed without prejudice to appellants' right to seek review after the entry of a final judgment.
MINER, WEBSTER and LAWRENCE, JJ., CONCUR.
