Petitioner,

MCKENZIE CHECK ADVANCE OF FLORIDA, LLC, etc., et al., 
Respondents. 
 
[May 11, 2006] 
 
PER CURIAM. 
We have for review Reuter v. McKenzie Check Advance of Florida, LLC, 
825 So. 2d 1070 (Fla. 4th DCA 2002), which cited to a case that was pending 
review in this Court (Buckeye Check Cashing, Inc. v. Cardegna, 824 So. 2d 228 
(Fla. 4th DCA 2002), review granted, 844 So. 2d 645 (Fla. 2003)).  We have 
jurisdiction.  See art. V, § (3)(b)(3), Fla. Const.; Jollie v. State, 405 So. 2d 418 
(Fla. 1981).  Since the petition for review was filed in this case, both this Court and 
the United States Supreme Court have reviewed and ruled on the issue raised in the 
Cardegna case.  See Cardegna v. Buckeye Check Cashing, Inc., 894 So. 2d 860 
(Fla. 2005), rev’d, 126 S. Ct. 1204 (2006).

Because the decision of the Fourth District in Reuter is in accord with the 
controlling United States Supreme Court decision in Cardegna, we decline to 
accept jurisdiction in this case.   
It is so ordered.
