Colin v. Hinckley
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 8, 1992 · Dell, Farmer, Gunther, Only
600 So. 2d 58; 1992 Fla. App. LEXIS 7825; 1992 WL 153980 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Colin v. Hinckley

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We grant the petition for a writ of mandamus. See Fla.R.Civ.P. 1.490(c); Hanor v. Hinckley, 584 So.2d 1129 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991). Respondent Hinckley shall vacate the order of reference to the general master and shall promptly schedule a hearing before the court on all pending applications. We expressly disapprove of the practice, if it is a practice, of routinely assigning all such matters to a general master and then overruling any objection by a non-consenting party.

MANDAMUS GRANTED.

DELL and FARMER, JJ., concur. GUNTHER, J., concurring in result only.
