Head Matter:
In the Matter of the ADOPTION OF K.L.H., a minor.
No. 88-2010.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
April 19, 1989.
Ronald P. Glantz of Glantz and Glantz, Fort Lauderdale, for appellant-John C. Gru-ber.
No brief filed for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We reverse and remand the trial court's order which reaffirmed the final judgment of adoption. The so-called "consent" was neither properly sworn nor executed within the presence of the notary. It contained an acknowledgment, not a jurat, as required in a sworn document. See Neff v. Adler, 416 So.2d 1240, 1241 n. 2 (Fla. 4th DCA 1982).
GLICKSTEIN, GUNTHER, JJ., and ROBINSON, STEVEN D., Associate Judge, concur.
