We reverse the order dismissing appellant's complaint for lack of prosecution pursuant to rule 1.420(e), Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, because there was, on the face of the record, activity within the one-year period. Appellant filed a civil cover sheet within the requisite time period. See Fla. R. Civ. P. 1.420; Wilson v. Salamon, 923 So. 2d 363, 2005 WL 2663432 (Fla. Oct. 20, 2005).
