TIEN v. AKERMAN LLP (2019)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

Henry TIEN, Appellant(s)/Petitioner(s), v. AKERMAN LLP, etc., Appellee(s)/Respondent(s),

CASE NO.: 3D19-0713

Decided: June 12, 2019

Upon consideration of appellee's motion to dismiss appeal, it is ordered that the above-styled appeal is hereby dismissed. See Garcia v. Valladares, 99 So. 3d 518, 518 (Fla. 3d DCA 2011) (“Appellant, Maria Garcia, appeals from a [nonfinal] order finding entitlement to costs and attorney fees ․ Because the order, however, does not determine the amount of such fees or costs, the order is a [nonfinal], [nonappealable] order. Indeed, the order appealed reserves jurisdiction to determine the amount at a future hearing. We, therefore, dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.” (citations omitted)); Avis Rent A Car Sys., Inc. v. Newman, 641 So. 2d 915, 915–16 (Fla. 3d DCA 1994) (“The instant order merely determined the entitlement to attorney's fees without setting the amount. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal without prejudice to allow Avis to appeal from the final order setting the amount of attorney's fees, when entered.”) (citations omitted).

SALTER, FERNANDEZ and MILLER, JJ., concur.
