No. 86-420.

March 25, 1986.

A Case of Original Jurisdiction — Prohibition.

Jaime Claudio Bovell, Coral Gables, for petitioner.

Robert A. Ginsburg, Co. Atty., and Cynthia Johnson, Asst. Co. Atty., for respondents.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and HUBBART and BASKIN, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

We treat petitioner's request for writ of prohibition as a petition for writ of certiorari, Fla.R.App.P. 9.040(c), grant certiorari, and quash the "Order Granting [Metropolitan Dade County's] Motion to Intervene" on a finding that the trial court abused its discretion in allowing Metropolitan Dade County to intervene after the entry of final judgment. See Dickinson v. Segal, 219 So.2d 435 (Fla. 1969); Maryland Casualty Co. v. Hanson Dredging, Inc., 393 So.2d 595 (Fla. 4th DCA 1981); Wong v. Von Wersebe, 365 So.2d 429 (Fla. 3d DCA 1978); Fla.R.Civ.P. 1.230.

Petition granted.
