Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Certified Direct Conflict of Decisions Second District — Case Nos. 2D00-4295, 2D00-4384 and 2D01-533 (Hillsborough County).
Louis K. Rosenbloum of Law Offices of Louis K. Rosenbloum, P.A., Pensacola, Florida; and Dale Swope, Tampa, Florida, for Petitioner.
Hinda Klein of Conroy, Simberg, Ganon, Krevans Abel, P.A., Hollywood, Florida, for Respondents.
Philip M. Burlington of Caruso, Burlington, Bohn Compiani, P.A., West Palm Beach, Florida, for the Academy of Florida Trial Lawyers, Amicus Curiae.
David B. Pakula, Fort Lauderdale, Florida, for Florida Defense Lawyers Association, Amicus Curiae for Respondent.
We initially accepted jurisdiction to review Steele v. Kinsey, 801 So.2d 297 (Fla. 2d DCA 2001), a decision of a district court of appeal certifying conflict with the decision of another district court of appeal. Upon reflection and further consideration, we now conclude that review was improvidently granted. Accordingly, this review proceeding is dismissed.
It is so ordered.
ANSTEAD, C.J., and WELLS, PARIENTE, CANTERO, and BELL, JJ., concur.
LEWIS and QUINCE, JJ., dissent.
NO MOTION FOR REHEARING WILL BE ALLOWED.
