IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA CITIZENS PROPERTY INSURANCE CORPORATION, NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED Appellant, CASE NO. 1D06-0291 v. THOMAS UEBERSCHAER, Appellee. _____________________________/ Opinion filed May 21, 2008. An appeal from the Circuit Court for Santa Rosa County. R.V. Swanson, Judge. G. Alan Howard and Robert M. Dees of Milam, Howard, Nicandri, Dees & Gillam, P.A., Jacksonville, for Appellant. Eric P. Sventek of Thomas J. Ueberschaer, P.A., Pensacola; Louis K. Rosenbloum of Louis K. Rosenbloum, P.A., Pensacola, for Appellee. UPON REMAND FROM THE FLORIDA SUPREME COURT PER CURIAM. Pursuant to the Florida Supreme Court’s mandate in Citizens Property Insurance Corp. v. Ueberschaer, 33 Fla. L. Weekly S223 (Fla. Mar. 28, 2008), which quashed and remanded our opinion in Citizens Property Insurance Corp. v. Ueberschaer, 956 So. 2d 483 (Fla. 1st DCA 2007), we have reconsidered the merits of this case under the principles announced in Florida Farm Bureau Casualty Insurance Co. v. Cox, 967 So. 2d 815 (Fla. 2007). Accordingly, the final summary judgment issued in favor of Appellee, Thomas Ueberschaer, is reversed, and this matter is remanded for further proceedings consistent with the Florida Supreme Court’s decision in Cox. This reversal necessarily requires us to vacate our previous order partially granting Appellee’s motion for appellate attorney’s fees. Appellee’s motion for appellate attorney’s fees is hereby denied. REVERSED and REMANDED. PADOVANO, LEWIS, and THOMAS, JJ., CONCUR. 2
