hearing thereon.”); DTRS Intercontinental Mia., LLC v. A.K. Gift Shop, Inc.,

entitled to an immediate writ of possession where tenant failed to timely

deposit the specified rent into the court registry, stating that “trial courts have

no discretion in entering an immediate default for possession under these

circumstances. The trial court may not consider the reasons why the deposit

was not timely made” (quoting Park Adult Residential Facility, Inc. v. Dan

Designs, Inc., 36 So. 3d 811, 812 (Fla. 3d DCA 2010))).
