    An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Valerie R.
Manno Schurr, Judge.

     Kevin Coyle Colbert, for appellant.

     Nancy A. Hass (Hollywood), for appellee.

Before SUAREZ, FERNANDEZ and LUCK, JJ.

     PER CURIAM.
       We affirm without further discussion and write only to point out the perilous

journey undertaken by counsel when they ask the trial court to interpret an order of

a foreign jurisdiction without providing the court a proper foundation for

interpretation of that order. The trial court was asked to interpret the order of an

Aruban appellate court without the benefit of the law of Aruba that rightfully

would control that interpretation. Without knowing what is required by the law in

Aruba in relation to the appellate court decision, we cannot properly review the

trial court’s interpretation.

       Affirmed.
