PER CURIAM. 
 
We originally accepted jurisdiction to review the First District Court of 
Appeal’s decision in Houlihan’s Restaurants, Inc. v. APAC-Florida, Inc., 911 So. 
2d 816 (Fla. 1st DCA 2005), based on express and direct conflict with Trump 
Enterprises, Inc. v. Publix Supermarkets, Inc., 682 So. 2d 168 (Fla. 4th DCA 
1996).  After further consideration, we have determined that jurisdiction was 
improvidently granted and hereby dismiss this case. 
 
It is so ordered.
