Simpson v. Simpson
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 19, 1989 · Cowart, Dauksch, Goshorn
550 So. 2d 153; 14 Fla. L. Weekly 2465; 1989 Fla. App. LEXIS 5857; 1989 WL 122630 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Simpson v. Simpson

Opinion of the Court

DAUKSCH, Judge.

This matter was filed with this court as an appeal from a non-final order. We treat it as a petition for writ of certiorari and deny it. Petitioner seeks to have us reverse an order denying a limited lifting of a *154stay order. He wants the stay order lifted only so the trial judge can order a lis pendens dissolved. The lis pendens apparently is ineffectual now because the statutory one-year period passed without any court-ordered extension. See § 48.23(2), Fla.Stat. (1989). Thus there is no need for the lifting of the stay. Should a cloud on the title now exist appellant can have it removed by separate proceedings.

PETITION DENIED.

COWART and GOSHORN, JJ., concur.
