No. CACE19-010970.

        ON MOTIONS FOR REHEARING AND CERTIFICATION

PER CURIAM.

   We affirmed the trial court’s order finding personal jurisdiction over
appellants where their lawyer agreed to accept service by mail. Florida
Rule of Civil Procedure 1.070(i) does not apply where a defendant’s
attorney agrees to accept service. Rather, the rule applies where a party
defendant is served by mail, without any participation by an attorney.

   We deny the motions for rehearing and certification.

WARNER, GROSS and CIKLIN, JJ., concur.
