Khem-Troll, Inc. v. Edelman
Decision Date | 29 October 1976 |
Docket Number | No. 76-1440,KHEM-TROL,INC,76-1440 |
Parties | , a Florida Corporation; and Murray H. Michael, Individually, Appellants, v. Gilbert M. EDELMAN, Appellee. |
Court | Florida District Court of Appeals |
Tanya M. Plaut, Orlando, for appellants.
Wallace F. Stalnaker, Jr., of Stephenson, Stalnaker & Beane, P. A., Casselberry, for appellee.
Appellants' motion to vacate a final judgment pursuant to Fla.R.Civ.P. 1.540, was denied by order dated April 15, 1976. Appellants served a petition for rehearing within ten days; it was denied by order dated June 7, 1976. Notice of appeal was filed on July 6, 1976, to review the foregoing orders of April 15th and June 7th.
Appellee has moved to dismiss the appeal contending that the appeal should be directed to the final judgment. In opposition to said motion to dismiss appellants contend that this is an interlocutory appeal pursuant to Florida Appellate Rule 4.2, citing Bland v. Mitchell, 245 So.2d 47 (Fla.1970).
If appellants' contention that the orders in question are interlocutory in nature and may be reviewed pursuant to Florida Appellate Rule 4.2 is correct, then the appeal is untimely because there is no provision in the rules for a petition for rehearing directed to an interlocutory order. Wagner v. Bieley, Wagner & Associates, Inc., 263 So.2d 1 (Fla.1972); Home News Publishing Co. v. U-M Publishing, Inc., 246 So.2d 117 (Fla.1st DCA 1971). Prior to publication of Clearwater Federal Savings & Loan Assn. v. Sampson, 336 So.2d 78 (Fla.1976), we would have supposed the orders in question were interlocutory and subject to review pursuant to Rule 4.2, and with good authority. That is what the Supreme Court said in Bland v. Mitchell, supra. We would have dismissed this appeal as untimely since the petition for rehearing would not have extended the time for filing notice of appeal. See Southwest Electric Supply v. Banfield, 302 So.2d 810 (Fla.2d DCA 1974). However, in the Sampson case the Supreme Court has drawn a distinction between orders entered before and after final judgment. Therein the court states:
