     Michael J. Neimand, for appellant.

      David B. Pakula, P.A., and David B. Pakula (Pembroke Pines); Marks
& Fleischer P.A., and Gary Marks (Fort Lauderdale), for appellee.

Before EMAS, HENDON and BOKOR JJ.

     PER CURIAM.
      We reverse and remand consistent with our recent decision in United

Automobile Insurance Co. v. Millennium Radiology, LLC, 47 Fla. L. Weekly

D175 (Fla. 3d DCA Jan. 12, 2022) (“Millennium’s ‘identity’ is not the same in

each of these cases against United Auto; Millennium draws its identity from

its assignor from case to case. The identity element of collateral estoppel,

therefore, is not satisfied.”).

      Reversed and remanded.
