Yankeetown Management, LLC v. Suntrust Mortgage, Inc.
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided May 22, 2015 · Kelly, Altenbernd, Khouzam
164 So. 3d 744; 2015 Fla. App. LEXIS 7732; 2015 WL 2431880 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Yankeetown Management, LLC v. Suntrust Mortgage, Inc.

Opinion

KELLY, Judge.

We dismiss the appeal because the appellant, Yankeetown Management LLC, lacks standing to challenge the final judgment of foreclosure in this case. Yankee-town did not seek to intervene before the final judgment was rendered; therefore, it is a legal stranger to the action. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.020(g)(1) (defining “Appellant” as a “party”); Portfolio Invs. Corp. v. Deutsche Bank Nat’l Trust Co., 81 So.3d 534, 536 (Fla. 3d DCA 2012) (holding that generally a nonparty is a stranger to the record and lacks standing to appeal an order rendered by the lower court).

Appeal dismissed.

ALTENBERND and KHOUZAM, JJ., Concur.
