Catalfumo Construction Ltd. v. Elizabeth Jason Corp.

Opinion of the Court

FARMER, C.J.

GRANTED. We hold that the 20-day provision in section 713.21(4), Florida Statutes (2003), does not begin to run until the Clerk has issued a show cause summons, which was not done in this case. We quash the order canceling petitioner’s lien and return this cause to the trial court for further proceedings consistent with this holding.

WARNER and STEVENSON, JJ., concur.
