F.A. RIVIERE, Appellant, v. ST. JAMES EPISCOPAL CHURCH OF CLAYTON, GEORGIA, INC., Appellee.
    No. 89-739.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    June 20, 1989.
    Rash & Katzen and H. Stephen Rash, Miami, for appellant.
    Ponzoli & Wassenberg and Steven B. Sundook, Miami, David B. Betts, for appel-lee.
    Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and BASKIN and LEVY, JJ.
   PER CURIAM.

Section 48.193(l)(f)(l), Florida Statutes (1987), applies only to injuries that occur within this state as a result of acts or omissions that occur outside the state. Jurisdiction under section 48.193(l)(f)(l) does not depend on the residency of the injured individual; the situs of the injury determines the forum.

Affirmed.
