Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Such an order is interlocutory, and a motion to reconsider its entry is not authorized by Florida Rules of Civil Procedure 1.530(a). Thus, the filing and pendency of a motion for reconsideration does not toll the time for taking an appeal. “M Enterprises, Inc. v. Baumgartner, 362 So.2d 282 (Fla. 1st DCA 1978).
