QUINCE, J. 
 
We initially accepted jurisdiction to review the decision of the First District 
Court of Appeal in Hunter v. Shaw, 182 So. 3d 784 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015), based on 
express and direct conflict.  See art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const.  After further 
consideration, we conclude that jurisdiction was improvidently granted.  
Accordingly, we hereby discharge jurisdiction and dismiss this review proceeding.  
 
It is so ordered.  
LABARGA, C.J., and CANADY, POLSTON, and LAWSON, JJ., concur.
