                                  No. SC17-1387
                                  ____________

                              MARIE ANN GLASS,
                                  Petitioner,

                                         vs.

                NATIONSTAR MORTGAGE, LLC, etc., et al.,
                            Respondents.

                                   April 18, 2019

PER CURIAM.

      Respondent’s Motion to Recall Mandate is hereby granted. The opinion of

this Court dated January 4, 2019, is hereby withdrawn, and this opinion is

substituted in its place. See § 43.44, Fla. Stat. (2018) (“An appellate court may, as

the circumstances and justice of the case may require, reconsider, revise, reform, or

modify its own opinions and orders for the purpose of making the same accord

with law and justice.”); Fla. R. Jud. Admin. 2.205(b)(5). In light of the substituted

opinion, we hereby deny Respondent’s Motion for Clarification.

      We initially accepted review of the decision of the Fourth District Court of

Appeal in Nationstar Mortgage LLC v. Glass, 219 So. 3d 896 (Fla. 4th DCA
2017), based on express and direct conflict with the decision of the First District

Court of Appeal in Bank of New York v. Williams, 979 So. 2d 347 (Fla. 1st DCA

2008). Upon further consideration, we conclude that jurisdiction was

improvidently granted. Accordingly, we hereby discharge jurisdiction and dismiss

this review proceeding.

      It is so ordered.

CANADY, C.J., and POLSTON, LAWSON, LAGOA, LUCK, and MUÑIZ, JJ.,
concur.
LABARGA, J., dissents.

NO MOTION FOR REHEARING WILL BE ALLOWED.
