Order on Filing Fee
|
Description |
ORD-Pay Filing Fee-Civil Appeal ~ The jurisdiction of this court was invoked by filing of a Notice of Appeal in the lower tribunal. The $300.00 filing fee, or a circuit court clerk's determination of indigent status, did not accompany the Notice of Appeal as required in Florida Rules of Appellate Procedure 9.110(b) and 9.140(a). The filing fee is due and payable at the time of filing REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE APPEAL IS LATER DISMISSED VOLUNTARILY OR ADVERSELY.ORDERED that appellant shall pay the $300.00 filing fee or file the circuit court clerk's determination of indigent status in this court within ten (10) days from the date of this order. The fee may be paid electronically through the Florida Courts E-Filing Portal – see the court’s website for details. Failure to comply within the time prescribed will result in dismissal of this cause and may result in the court sanctioning of any party, or the party's attorney, who has not paid the filing fee. The attorney filing the Notice of Appeal has a duty to tender the filing fee to the appellate court when the appeal is initiated. See In Re Payment of Filing Fees, 744 So. 2d 1025 (Fla. 4th DCA 1997). Failure of the attorney to pay will result in referral to the Department of Financial Services for collection.**NOTE: This order does not toll the time for filing any pleadings necessary to prosecute this appeal and no extensions of time will be entertained. Once the fee is paid, it is not refundable. Except for dismissal, this court will take no action in this appeal until the filing fee is paid or until a circuit court clerk's determination of indigent status is filed.

Order to Show Cause ~ ORDERED that appellants are directed to show cause, if any there be, within ten (10) days from the date of this order, why the November 11, 2019 "amendment to notice of appeal" should not be treated as a separate notice of appeal and designated its own case number. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.110(h) ("Multiple final orders may be reviewed by a single notice, if the notice is timely filed as to each order."); Rhoades v. Southwest Florida Regional Medical Center, 542 So. 2d 1042 (Fla. 2d DCA 1989) (finding that the amended notice of appeal directed to an order not included in the original notice of appeal can be treated as a separate notice of appeal, as the appellant did not come within purview of appellate rule providing that multiple final orders may be reviewed by single notice if the notice is timely filed as to each such order).

Description |
ORD-Sua Sponte Dismissed for Lack of Jurisdiction ~ ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. The partial summary judgment is not appealable, as there are interrelated claims involving the same transaction remaining in the suit.The trial court entered partial summary judgment against appellants on Count I of their complaint and on “four of the five independent reasons” set forth in Counts III and IV as to why appellants sought a declaration that certain claims of lien were unenforceable. We find that the counts addressed in the partial summary judgment—Counts I, III, and IV—are all interrelated. We further find that Counts III and IV are still pending in part. Specifically, Counts III and IV are still pending below as to one of the five independent reasons appellants sought a declaration that the claims of lien were unenforceable—namely, that the fines at issue were the product of selective enforcement.Because we conclude that the partial summary judgment is not appealable under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.110(k), this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. See Mendez v. W. Flagler Family Ass’n, 303 So. 2d 1, 5 (Fla. 1974) (“[P]iecemeal appeals should not be permitted where claims are legally interrelated and in substance involve the same transaction.”); Palm Beach Newspapers, Inc. v. Walker, 506 So. 2d 39, 40 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987) (a partial summary judgment “is not appealable where there is any interrelated claim involving the same transaction and parties remaining in the suit”); Flinn v. Flinn, 68 So. 3d 424, 425 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011) (“The test to determine whether counts of a multi-count complaint are so interrelated as to preclude a piecemeal appeal is whether the counts arise from a set of common facts or a single transaction, not whether different legal theories or additional facts are involved in separate counts.” (citation and internal quotation marks omitted)).ORDERED, further, that appellee Footbridge Homeowners Association’s motion for attorney’s fees dated October 25, 2018 is denied without prejudice to moving for appellate attorney’s fees in any subsequent appeal of a final order arising out of this litigation.TAYLOR, CONNER and KLINGENSMITH, JJ., concur.

Order to Show Cause
|
Description |
Order to Show Cause ~ ORDERED that appellants shall show cause in writing, if any there be, within ten (10) days from the date of this order, why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction.The trial court entered partial summary judgment against appellants on Count I of their complaint and on “four of the five independent reasons” set forth in Counts III and IV as to why appellants sought a declaration that certain claims of lien were unenforceable.Thus, even though appellants voluntarily dismissed Counts II, V, VI, VII, and VIII, it appears that Counts III and IV are still pending below as to one of the independent reasons appellants sought a declaration that the claims of lien were unenforceable—namely, that they were the product of selective enforcement.Any response from appellants to this order shall address whether the partial summary judgment is one that disposes of a “separate and distinct cause of action” so as to be appealable under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.110(k). See Mendez v. W. Flagler Family Ass’n, Inc., 303 So. 2d 1, 5 (Fla. 1974) (“[P]iecemeal appeals should not be permitted where claims are legally interrelated and in substance involve the same transaction.”); Palm Beach Newspapers, Inc. v. Walker, 506 So. 2d 39, 40 (Fla. 4th DCA 1987) (a partial summary judgment “is not appealable where there is any interrelated claim involving the same transaction and parties remaining in the suit”); Flinn v. Flinn, 68 So. 3d 424, 425 (Fla. 4th DCA 2011) (“[P]leading or proving differing legal theories does not establish that the counts are separate and distinct for the purpose of appealability where the counts arise from a set of common facts; otherwise, the limited exception for an interlocutory appeal would consume the rule.”).No response is required from appellees unless provided for by further order.
