Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
The sole issue of attorney's fees in this case is now moot by virtue of this court's decision in the unconsolidated case of Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corp. v. Carter, 723 So.2d 833 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998). Accordingly, we reverse and remand to the trial court with instructions to vacate the judgment for attorney's fees.
