Head Matter:

No. EE-321.

Sept. 2, 1977.
William A. Parsons of Gosney, Cameron & Parsons, Daytona Beach, for appellant.
Joe C. Miller, II, Palatka, for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Reversed on authority of Allen v. Gaither, 112 So.2d 855 (Fla. 1st DCA 1959). Also, see Brennan v. Ryter, 339 So.2d 661 (Fla. 1st DCA 1976). We are aware of the conflict between the Allen case and City of Miami v. Dade County, 321 So.2d 140 (Fla. 3d DCA 1975), but adhere to the Allen case. Remanded for entry of an order granting the defendant's motion to dismiss for lack of prosecution.
McCORD, C. J., and MILLS, J., concur.
BOYER, J., dissents.
