1Opinion of the Court
CRENSHAW, Judge.
State Farm Florida Insurance Company (State Farm) petitions this court for certio-*87rari review of a nonfinal order from the circuit court ruling that section 627.7074, Florida Statutes (2010), is unconstitutional and prohibiting State Farm from conducting any further action on a neutral evaluation under the statute. We hold that the circuit court departed from the essential requirements of law by finding section 627.7074 unconstitutional. Accordingly, we grant State Farm’s petition and quash the circuit court’s order.
