417 So. 2d 832 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | 1982
We have before us an appeal from a trial court order transferring venue of the present action from Duval County, Florida, to Orange County, Florida. The appeal is sua sponte dismissed.
The order transferring venue was rendered January 19, 1982. Appellant then had 30 days within which to file its notice of appeal to this court. Fla.R.App.P. 9.130(b). Instead, appellant filed a Motion
A motion for rehearing directed to an interlocutory order changing venue is not authorized under the rules of practice. Fla. R.Civ.P. 1.530(a), (b); Home News Publishing Company v. U-M Publishing, Inc., 246 So.2d 117 (Fla. 1st DCA 1971). Thus, Appellant’s Motion to Change Order of Transfer of Venue, etc., did not toll the running of time for seeking review of the order transferring venue. See Fla.R.App.P. 9.020(g); Home News Publishing, supra. This appeal challenging the correctness of the trial court’s transfer of this cause to Orange County was, therefore, untimely filed, 50 days after rendition of the order transferring venue, and is accordingly
DISMISSED.
