Todd M. LaDouceur and Rebecca D. Gilliland of Galloway, Johnson, Tompkins, Burr & Smith, P.L.C., Pensacola, for Appellant.

Per Curiam. We dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction. This Court has no jurisdiction to review an oral order. See Gregg v. State , 643 So. 2d 106 (Fla. 1st DCA 1994). A transcript cannot substitute as a written order. See Owens v. State , 579 So. 2d 311 (Fla. 1st DCA 1991) (holding that clerk's minutes could not substitute for written order). Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.110(b) provides that the Court's jurisdiction is invoked by the filing of a notice of appeal within 30 days of rendition of the order to be reviewed. According to Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.020(h), "rendition" occurs "when a signed, written order is filed with the clerk of the lower tribunal." (emphasis added). All pending motions are denied as moot.
Lewis, Roberts, and M.K. Thomas, JJ., concur.
