FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL
                STATE OF FLORIDA
                 _____________________________

                         No. 1D16-4960
                 _____________________________

SAMUEL C. GOLDEN,

    Appellant,

    v.

ESTATE OF HANS G. TANZLER,
JR.,

    Appellee.
                 _____________________________

On appeal from the Circuit Court for Duval County.
Peter L. Dearing, Judge.

                       December 10, 2018

PER CURIAM.

     In Burdoo v. Plympton, this court held that “[a] court
reversibly errs when a prisoner requests to appear telephonically[]
and the court fails to issue an order directed to the Department of
Corrections requiring the prisoner to appear telephonically.” 219
So. 3d 170, 171 (Fla. 1st DCA 2017); accord Havenner v.
Hutchinson, 162 So. 3d 1113, 1114 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015). In this
case, that is what happened.

    REVERSED.

ROBERTS, RAY, and WINSOR, JJ., concur.
                 _____________________________

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