Domenic D. MIELE a/k/a Domenic Miele, Appellant, v. WELLS FARGO BANK, N.A.; Evergrene Master Association, Inc.; Unknown Spouse of Domenic D. Miele a/k/a Domenic Miele; and Unknown Tenant(s) in Possession of the Subject Property, Appellees.
    No. 4D14-873.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    July 15, 2015.
    Barry Carothers of BC Law, Stuart, for appellant.
    Donna L. Eng, Michael K. Winston and Dean A. Morande of Carlton Fields Jorden Burt, P.A., West Palm Beach, for appellee Wells Fargo Bank, N.A.
   PER CURIAM.

The appellant raises three issues in this mortgage foreclosure case. We find two issues have no merit, but we agree with the appellant that the trial court erred in its calculation of prejudgment interest.

The complaint alleged that the appellant defaulted on the note by failing to make the payment due on August 1, 2009, and all subsequent payments. The evidence introduced at trial indicated that the loan became due on August 1, 2009. However, the trial court calculated prejudgment interest from July 1, 2009. This was error. We reverse and remand for the trial court to recalculate prejudgment interest using the correct accrual date. We reject the appellant’s other arguments regarding calculation of prejudgment interest.

Affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with instructions.

CIKLIN, C.J., STEVENSON and GROSS, JJ., concur.
