FCCI COMMERCIAL INSURANCE

    Appellant,

    v.

PULTE HOME CORPORATION, a
Michigan Corporation,

    Appellee.
                  _____________________________

On appeal from the Circuit Court for Duval County.
Kevin Blazs, Judge.

                          March 18, 2019

PER CURIAM.

     The Court has determined that the order on appeal is not a
final, appealable order as it fails to complete the judicial labor in
the case. Accordingly, Appellee’s motion to dismiss the appeal is
granted and the appeal is dismissed.

     Appellee’s motion for attorney’s fees based on section 627.428,
Florida Statutes, is provisionally granted. In the event Appellee
prevails before the trial court, the trial court shall determine
Appellee’s entitlement to fees for this appeal pursuant to section
627.428. If the trial court finds Appellee is entitled to fees, the
trial court shall assess fees against Appellant pursuant to section
627.428.

    In light of the dismissal, all other pending motions are denied
as moot.

ROWE, BILBREY, and KELSEY, JJ., concur.

                 _____________________________

    Not final until disposition of any timely and
    authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or
    9.331.
