FIRST DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL STATE OF FLORIDA _____________________________ 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.

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. _____________________________ Michael J. Thomas, William D. Horgan, Chase E. Boswell and Cody W. Short of Pennington, P.A., Tallahassee, for Petitioner. Terrie L. Didier of Beggs & Lane, RLLP, Pensacola, and Robert G. Kerrigan of Kerrigan, Estess, Rankin, McLeod & Thompson, LLP, Pensacola, for Respondent. 2
