vs. 
 
THE SUNRISE OPHTHALMOLOGY ASC, etc., et al., 
Respondents. 
 
[March 26, 2015] 
 
PER CURIAM. 
 
We initially accepted jurisdiction to review the Fourth District Court of 
Appeal’s decision in Edwards v. Sunrise Opthalmology ASC, LLC, 134 So. 3d 
1056 (Fla. 4th DCA 2013).  See art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const.  However, upon 
further consideration, we conclude that jurisdiction was improvidently granted.  
Accordingly, we dismiss the petition. 
It is so ordered.   
LABARGA, C.J., and PARIENTE, CANADY, POLSTON, and PERRY, JJ., 
concur. 
LEWIS and QUINCE, JJ., dissent. 
 
NO MOTION FOR REHEARING WILL BE ALLOWED.
