Johns v. Johns

Supreme Court of Florida

1Opinion of the Court

OVERTON, Justice.

We have for review Johns v. Johns, 703 So.2d 1243 (Fla. 5th DCA 1998). In rendering its decision, the district court of appeal denied the petition for writ of certiorari filed in that case, citing as controlling authority Chaddick v. Monopoli, 677 So.2d 347 (Fla. 5th DCA 1996), approved in part, 714 So.2d 1007 (Fla.1998). Because the Chaddick case was pending review before this Court at the time the Johns decision was rendered, we find that we have jurisdiction under article V, section 3(b)(3), Florida Constitution. See Jollie v. State, 405 So.2d 418 (Fla.1981).
