September 12, 1996.

Application for Review of the Decision of the District Court of Appeal — Direct Conflict of Decisions, Third District — Case No. 94-2671, Dade County.

Richard A. Sherman and Rosemary B. Wilder of the Law Offices of Richard A. Sherman, P.A., Fort Lauderdale; and Gordon J. Evans of Ligman, Martin Evans, Coral Gables, for Petitioner.

G. William Bissett of Hardy, Bissett Lipton, P.A., Miami, for Respondents.


We originally accepted jurisdiction to review Sponco Manufacturing, Inc. v. Alcover, 656 So.2d 629 (Fla. 3d DCA 1995), based upon conflict jurisdiction. See art. V, § 3 (b)(3), Fla. Const. However, after hearing oral argument, we conclude that jurisdiction was improvidently granted and accordingly dismiss the petition.

It is so ordered.

KOGAN, C.J., and OVERTON, GRIMES, HARDING and WELLS, JJ., concur.

SHAW and ANSTEAD, JJ., dissent.
