Head Matter:
Richard DESPRES, Appellant, v. Gregory M. PAGEL, Appellee.
No. HH-161.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
May 22, 1978.
William G. Babcock and James R. Birk-hold, Gainesville, for appellant.
Sara B. Anderson, Jacksonville, for appel-lee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
This appeal from the trial court's order denying relief under Fla.R.Civ.P. 1.540 fails because, notwithstanding the disturbing implications in the prior record of proceedings before the circuit court, no evidence was submitted at the June 1977 hearing on which we can hold that relief on the ground of excusable neglect was required as a matter of law.
AFFIRMED.
SMITH, Acting C. J., and BOOTH, J., concur.
ERVIN, J., dissents.
