Opinion:
WALLACE, Judge.
Outlaw Ridge, Inc., obtained a final summary judgment in its favor in an action brought by Robert J. Howell, Terry Hop-penjans, and Myles Friedland (the Howell parties). The Howell parties appealed the final summary judgment entered against them in case number 2D14-893. After entry of the final summary judgment, the circuit court entered an order taxing costs in favor of Outlaw Ridge and against the Howell parties in the amount of $4431.65. In this case, the Howell parties challenge the cost award in favor of Outlaw Ridge.
This court has now reversed the final summary judgment in favor of Outlaw Ridge and has remanded the case to the trial court for further proceedings. Howell v. Pasco Cnty., 165 So.3d 12 (Fla. 2d DCA 2015). Because the underlying final summary judgment has been reversed, we reverse the award of costs that is based on the reversed summary final judgment. See Carlow v. Blenman, 652 So.2d 479, 480 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995); Mason v. Porsche Cars N. Am., Inc., 689 So.2d 349, 349 (Fla. 5th DCA 1997).
Reversed and remanded.
CASANUEVA and LaROSE, JJ., Concur.
