    Opinion filed December 2, 2016
    Reno Wolfgang, Punta Gorda, pro se.
    R. Wesley Bradshaw, of Bradshaw & Mountjoy, P.A., Inverness, for Appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

Reno Wolfgang appeals the dismissal of his cause of action for replevin seeking return of property seized during the course of a criminal investigation. We affirm. See Pondella Hall For Hire, Inc. v. City of St. Cloud, 837 So.2d 510, 511-12 (Fla. 5th DCA 2003) (concluding trial court correctly dismissed replevin action because it lacked jurisdiction; cause of action must be brought in court with jurisdiction over the criminal proceedings (citing Eight Hundred Inc. v. State, 781 So.2d 1187, 1190-91 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001))).

AFFIRMED.

SAWAYA, COHEN and EDWARDS, JJ., concur. 
      
      . We note that the dismissal is without prejudice to Wolfgang pursuing his claim in the appropriate court. See Pondella Hall For Hire, Inc., 837 So.2d at 512.
