Thomas POCOCK, Appellant, v. Charles POCOCK as Personal Representative of the Estate of John Pocock; and Christie N. McKinnell, as the Natural Guardian of Minor Children, Audrey E. Pocock and Madeline L. Pocock, Appellees.

Thomas C. Jennings, III of Repka & Jennings, P.A., Clearwater, for Appellant. David B. Switalski, Tallahassee, for Appellees.


Thomas C. Jennings, III of Repka & Jennings, P.A., Clearwater, for Appellant.

David B. Switalski, Tallahassee, for Appellees.

Per Curiam.

We hold the trial court violated Pocock's due process rights by conducting an evidentiary hearing without providing notice that it was evidentiary in nature. See Jackson v. Leon Cnty. Elections Canvassing Bd. , 204 So. 3d 571 (Fla. 1st DCA 2016). We reverse the trial court's order and remand to the trial court to hold a properly noticed hearing.

REVERSED and REMANDED .

Lewis, B.L. Thomas, and Nordby, JJ., concur.
