Avinoam MDAR and Hevzibh Mdar, husband and wife, Appellants, v. Jack SHAPIRO, Appellee.
    No. 4D99-3663.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    May 3, 2000.
    Evan J. Langbein of Langbein & Lang-bein,.,P. A., and Fromberg, Perlow & Kor-nik, P.A., Aventura, for appellants.
    Kip O. Lassner of Atlas Pearlman, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

Because section 47.011, Florida Statutes (1999) regarding venue does not apply to non-residents, and the affidavits presented show that the appellee was not a resident of Florida, we reverse the order-transferring venue. See Olmo v. Muro, 446 So.2d 233, 233 (Fla. 3d DCA 1984).

WARNER, C.J., STONE and STEVENSON, JJ., concur.
