Darcy Craig PENICHET, Appellant, v. AMERICAN RECRUITERS CONSOLIDATED, INC., American Recruiters of South Florida, Inc., a Florida corporation, and Executive Futures, Inc., a Florida corporation, Appellees.
    No. 4D05-2139.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    May 31, 2006.
    Kevin Markow and Joann Nesta Burnett of Becker & Poliakoff, P.A., Fort Lauder-dale, for appellant.
    
      Sarah Weitz, Paul 0. Lopez, and Alexander D. Brown of Tripp Scott, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellees.
   PER CURIAM.

We reverse the final judgment entered against Darcy Penichet, which arose from an order imposing sanctions against Peni-chet for failure to post a bond.

This case arose from a 2002 settlement agreement. The agreement required that a bond be posted upon the breach of certain conditions. The agreement also provided the remedy upon the failure to post a bond — a default final judgment was to be entered against a corporation that was a party to the settlement agreement. The circuit court’s final judgment against Peni-chet exceeds the remedy that the parties bargained for in the settlement agreement.

Reversed and remanded.

WARNER, GROSS and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
