Opinion
No. 94-858.
May 13, 1994.
Petition for Certiorari Review of Order, from the Circuit Court for Orange County, Joseph P. Baker, Judge.
Charles B. Draper, Draper Law Office, Kissimmee, for petitioner.
No appearance for respondents.
Notwithstanding the cases cited by petitioner as authority, including Dolphin Cove Association v. Square D. Co., 616 So.2d 553 (Fla. 2d DCA 1993), we conclude that an interlocutory order striking a punitive damage claim in a personal injury or wrongful death case is not an appealable non-final order, under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.130, nor is it reviewable by certiorari. See, Scheuer v. Wille, 370 So.2d 1166 (Fla. 4th DCA 1979). Accordingly, the petition is denied.
DAUKSCH and GOSHORN, JJ., concur.
