756 So. 2d 266 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2000)

Opinion

No. 4D99-3663.

Opinion filed May 3, 2000.

Appeal of a non-final order from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County; W. Herbert Moriarty, Judge; L.T. No. 99-11593CACE18.

Evan J. Langbein of Langbein Langbein, P.A., and Fromberg, Perlow Kornik, P.A., Aventura, for appellants.

Kip O. Lassner of Atlas Pearlman, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellee.


Because section 47.011, Florida Statutes (1999) regarding venue does not apply to non-residents, and the affidavits presented show that the appellee was not a resident of Florida, we reverse the order transferring venue. See Olmo v. Muro, 446 So.2d 233, 233 (Fla. 3d DCA 1984).

WARNER, C.J., STONE and STEVENSON, JJ., concur.
