ROTHSTEIN-YOUAKIM, Judge.
In this consolidated appeal, the Mother challenges a Temporary Order for Timesharing, rendered on October 27, 2017 (case no. 2D17-4314), and an Amendment to Temporary Order for Timesharing, rendered on November 2, 2017 (case no. 2D17-4422).
We affirm the October 27, 2017, order without comment. However, the November 2, 2017, order was rendered after the notice of appeal in case number 2D17-4314 had been filed. The November 2, 2017, order modified a substantive provision of the October 27, 2017, order and is, therefore, a nullity. See Haines v. State, 805 So.2d 972, 973 (Fla. 2d DCA 2001) (trial court lacked jurisdiction to enter amended order elaborating on original order while appeal was pending; therefore amended order was a nullity): Albertson's Inc. v. Ferrell, 647 So.2d 242, 242 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994) (holding that amended order making more than clerical corrections was a nullity when it was entered after notice of appeal of the original order). The Father concedes error. Accordingly, we remand with directions to vacate the November 2, 2017, order. See Schaeffer v. State, 995 So.2d 518, 518 (Fla. 2d DCA 2008) (affirming original order but remanding with directions to vacate amended order "as it was entered without jurisdiction").
Because of the time-sensitive nature of the proceedings below, no motion for rehearing will be considered. The clerk of this court is directed to immediately issue the mandate so that the trial court may enter a final order in this matter.
Affirmed; remanded.
