PER CURIAM. 
 
We initially accepted jurisdiction to review Brock v. Board of County 
Commissioners of Collier County, 21 So. 3d 844 (Fla. 2d DCA 2009), review 
granted, 26 So. 3d 581 (Fla. 2010) (table), on the basis that the district court’s 
decision expressly affected a class of constitutional or state officers.  After further, 
full consideration, we have determined that we should exercise our discretion and 
discharge jurisdiction.  Accordingly, this case is dismissed. 
It is so ordered.
