             We affirm the trial court's order denying the motion to join or substitute as

a real party in interest filed by Trustbiz, LLC. See Bonafide Props. v. Wells Fargo Bank,

N.A., 41 Fla. L. Weekly D158 (Fla. 2d DCA Jan. 13, 2016); Whitburn, LLC v. Wells

Fargo Bank, N.A., 40 Fla. L. Weekly D2797 (Fla. 2d DCA Dec. 18, 2015). We dismiss
the portion of the appeal seeking review of the final judgment of foreclosure entered in

favor of JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. See Mkt. Tampa Invs., LLC v. Stobaugh, 177 So.
