Before NESBITT, GODERICH and SORONDO, JJ.
The petition for writ of certiorari is granted.See Fuller Enters. v. Michaels, 451 So.2d 536, 537-38 (Fla. 2d DCA 1984) (holding "[n]o citation of authority is needed to support the proposition that an appellate court may not, having once reversed a final judgment of a lower court, sua sponte review that judgment again. . . . To do so is a clear departure from the essential requirements of the law and justifies issuing [a] writ of certiorari. . . ."). Accordingly, the order under review is quashed, and this cause is remanded for further proceedings.
