Stevens v. American Bankers Insurance Co. of Florida
Supreme Court of Florida · Decided July 18, 1996 · Anstead, Grimes, Harding, Kogan, Overton, Shaw, Wells
676 So. 2d 1367; 21 Fla. L. Weekly Supp. 328; 1996 Fla. LEXIS 1246; 1996 WL 400381 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Stevens v. American Bankers Insurance Co. of Florida

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We granted review of Stevens v. American Bankers Insurance Co. of Florida, 651 So.2d 1219 (Fla. 3d DCA 1995), based upon express and direct conflict with the opinion in Smith v. General Accident Insurance Co., 641 So.2d 123 (Fla. 4th DCA 1994). See Art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. However, after closer examination of the two cases, we have determined that there is no express and direct conflict. Jurisdiction was therefore improvidently granted and the petition for review is accordingly dismissed.

It is so ordered.

KOGAN, C.J., and OVERTON, SHAW, GRIMES, HARDING, WELLS and ANSTEAD, JJ., concur.

NO MOTION FOR REHEARING WILL BE ALLOWED.
