This decision is reviewable by petition for writ of certiorari filed with the appropriate circuit court. See Decker v.

Appellant has initiated review by petition for writ of certiorari in the Eighth Judicial Circuit in and for Alachua County. Review is pending in case number 2017 CA 2390. Accordingly, Appellee's motion to dismiss, filed on July 25, 2017, is granted, and this appeal is dismissed. LEWIS, ROWE, and RAY, JJ., CONCUR.
