STATE of Florida, Petitioner, v. Evan C. WILHELM, Respondent.
    No. 1D15-0853.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    May 27, 2015.
    
      Pamela Jo Bondi, Attorney General, and Michael McDermott, Assistant Attorney General, Tallahassee, for Petitioner.
    William J. Sheppard, Elizabeth L. White, Matthew R. Kachergus, and Bryan E. DeMaggio of Sheppard, White, Kacher-gus & DeMaggio, P.A., Jacksonville, for Respondent.
   PER CURIAM.

By petition for writ of prohibition, petitioner seeks review of the trial court’s order denying its motion for disqualification. Upon review, we find that the motion for disqualification was legally sufficient. The petition for writ of prohibition is therefore granted and the trial judge is directed to enter an order of disqualification which requests the chief circuit judge to appoint a successor judge.

WOLF, MARSTILLER, and BILBREY, JJ., concur.
