                          No. 1D20-2059
                  _____________________________

JERRY F. SOWELL, as Personal
Representative of The Estate of
Gregory Grantham, D.M.D., and
Gregory Grantham, D.M.D.,
P.A.,

    Petitioner,

    v.

JESSICA SIMMONS,

    Respondent.
                  _____________________________

Petition for Writ of Certiorari—Original Jurisdiction.

                       September 22, 2021

PER CURIAM.

     Petitioner Jerry Sowell seeks review of a non-final trial court
order through a petition for writ of certiorari. Since filing his
petition, he has also filed a direct appeal of the same order.
Because we have decided that direct appeal under Florida Rule of
Appellate Procedure 9.130(b)(5) is the appropriate vehicle for
review, we dismiss this petition and Petitioner will be afforded
review through his direct appeal.

    DISMISSED.

ROBERTS, KELSEY, and LONG, JJ., concur.
                 _____________________________

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