Florida District Courts of Appeal
TERRA-ADI INTERNATIONAL BAYSHORE, LLC. v. Georgarious, 20 So. 3d 987 (2009)
2009 Fla. App. LEXIS 15817; 2009 WL 3365493
Cope, Salter, Schwartz

TERRA-ADI INTERNATIONAL BAYSHORE, LLC. v. Georgarious

Opinion

SCHWARTZ, Senior Judge.

The appellant-seller challenges an interlocutory order in an action involving a failed real estate deal in which the parties disputed which side had defaulted. The order released to the appellees-buyers the portion of the real estate deposit to which they were unconditionally entitled even if they did not prevail in the litigation, that is, even if they were the ones in default. 1 Considering this proceeding as an authorized non-final appeal under Rule 9.130(a)(3)(C)(ii), from an order determining the right to the immediate possession of property, the portion of the deposits in question, see Malek v. Bright, 7 So.3d 598 (Fla. 3d DCA 2009), the order is affirmed on the authority of Pianeta Miami, Inc. v. Lieberman, 949 So.2d 215 (Fla. 3d DCA 2006).
