Head Matter:
Ronald GARCIA, as Special Administrator of the Estate of Jacqueline Lou Hanson, Appellant, v. Patricia CARLSON, Margaret Ranger, and Allstate Insurance Company, Appellees.
No. 4D01-492.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
Sept. 12, 2001.
Richard A. Sherman and Rosemary B. Wilder of Law Offices of Richard A. Sherman, P.A., and Michael Balducci of Law Offices of Michael Balducci, Fort Lauder-dale, for appellant.
Larry Moskowitz of Larry Moskowitz, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellee Patricia Carlson.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We dismiss this case because it is from a non-final, non-appealable order denying a motion to dismiss. Although appellant attempts to characterize the appeal as determining jurisdiction of the person, the issues on appeal all deal with whether the decedent's estate was opened and served in a timely manner, whether the statutes of limitations expired, and whether Florida Rules of Civil Procedure 1.070(j) and 1.420(e) were violated. The order of denial on these grounds does not determine jurisdiction of the person. Thus, it is not a non-final appealable order under Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.130(a)(3).
Appeal dismissed.
GUNTHER, WARNER, JJ., and STREITFELD, JEFFREY E., Associate Judge, concur.
