PER CURIAM.

After rendering its decision in Bank of New York Mellon v. Glenville, 252

So. 3d 1120 (Fla. 2018), the Florida Supreme Court quashed this Court’s June 13, 2018 decision in this case, and remanded the matter back to us for reconsideration

upon application of Glenville. Eduartez v. Federal Nat’l Mortg. Ass’n, No. SC18-

1436 (Fla. S. Ct. Dec. 7, 2018). We ordered supplemental briefing from the parties.

We agree with appellees Degel, LLC and Sunshores Condominium Association

that Glenville requires affirmance of the trial court’s May 30, 2017 order that

denied appellant Eduardo F. Eduartez’s May 18, 2017 motion to vacate the surplus

fund disbursement order.

Affirmed.
