REBALKO v. GILLIS (2025)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

L. Anton REBALKO, Appellant, v. John GILLIS, Head Industries and Amerisure Insurance, Appellee.

No. 1D2024-1055

Decided: August 06, 2025

L. Anton Rebalko, pro se, Appellant. William H. Rogner of HR Law, P.A., Orlando, for Appellee.

Claimant's former counsel appeals an order on the Employer/Carrier's motion to designate proper payee on benefit checks. The order directed the E/C to make future checks payable to the claimant's designated guardian. This is not an appealable order. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.180(b)(1) (designating three categories of appealable non-final workers compensation orders); Dep't of Rev. v. Groman, 46 So. 3d 1058, 1059 (Fla. 1st DCA 2010) (dismissing appeal as non-final and non-appealable under Rule 9.180). We do not construe any other language in the order as ruling on the merits of any other disputed issues, which remain pending below.

Dismissed.

Per Curiam.

Osterhaus, C.J., and Kelsey and M.K. Thomas, JJ., concur.
