Robinson v. the City of Miami

1Opinion of the Court
Buford, J. —
This cause is before us on petition for writ of certiorari to review the judgment of the Circuit Court of Dade County wherein it reversed the judgment in favor of the plaintiff in the Civil Court of Record and directed that court to award a new trial.
The judgment of the Circuit Court is not a final judgment. That is, it does not finally dispose of the cause, nor does' it direct the lower court what judgment shall be entered there disposing of the cause. In such cases certiorari does not lie to review the judgment of the Circuit Court. See Waddell v. McAllister, 97 Fla. 1054, 122…
