Robert B. RUSSELL and Russell Florida Lands, Inc., Appellants, v. FLORIDA RANCH LANDS, INC., Appellee.
    No. 82-12.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    June 9, 1982.
    
      Gordon H. Harris and Herbert M. Hill, of Gray, Harris & Robinson, P. A., Orlando, for appellants.
    Edmund T. Woolfolk and Cameron H. Linton, of Woolfolk, Estes & Palmour, P. A., Orlando, for appellee.
   SHARP, Judge.

Robert Russell and Russell Florida Lands, Inc., appeal the lower court’s non-final order granting appellee’s motion for a temporary injunction. The essential elements which must be proved before a preliminary injunction can be issued are a legal right in the subject matter of the suit, likelihood of irreparable harm because of the unavailability of an adequate remedy at law and a substantial likelihood of success on the merits. Oxford International Bank and Trust, Ltd. v. Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Inc., 374 So.2d 54 (Fla. 3d DCA 1979). Since none of these elements were established by the testimony or record in this case, there was no foundation upon which to ground a preliminary injunction. Accordingly, it is

REVERSED.

COBB and COWART, JJ., concur.
