Arzoumanian v. U.S. Bank National Ass'n

967 So. 2d 1020, 2007 Fla. App. LEXIS 18402, 2007 WL 3201333

Opinion

Order on Motion To Relinquish Jurisdiction

PER CURIAM.

Counsel for appellants, who has been recently retained, has filed a motion to relinquish jurisdiction to the trial court in order for appellants to file a motion for relief from judgment under rule 1.540. Because relinquishment of jurisdiction for consideration of a rule 1.540 motion results in delay, we do not routinely grant motions to relinquish for this purpose unless we have been furnished a copy of the rule 1.540 motion. We accordingly deny this motion without prejudice to appellants filing their rule 1.540 motion in the trial court, and then filing a motion for relinquishment in this court, with a copy of the rule 1.540 motion attached.
