Case No. 94-0810
Opinion filed June 18, 1997
Appeal from the Circuit Court for the Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, Palm Beach County; Lucy Brown, Judge; L.T. Case No. CL 93-9863 AI.
Terence J. Watterson of Watterson, Hyland, Baird Klett, P.A., Palm Beach Gardens, and Edna L. Caruso of Caruso, Burlington, Bohn Compiani, P.A., West Palm Beach, for appellant.
Henry Latimer and Anthony J. Carriuolo of Eckert Seamans Cherin Mellott, Fort Lauderdale, for appellee.
Appellant, Everglades Memorial Hospital, Inc., d/b/a Everglades Regional Medical Center, sought at the trial and appellate levels the right to arbitrate pursuant to agreements that were the subject of a prior appeal. See Palm Beach County Health Care Dist. v. Everglades Memorial Hosp., Inc., 658 So.2d 577 (Fla. 4th DCA 1995). Because this court previously held that the agreements relied upon were void, the appellant has no contractual or other basis for the relief sought. Accordingly, the instant appeal is dismissed as moot.
DELL, STEVENSON, JJ., and MUIR, CELESTE, Associate Judge, concur.
