VANESSA MIKES,

v.

HOUSING AUTHORITY of the CITY OF FORT MYERS,

Appellee.

Appeal from the County Court for Lee County. Josephine Gagliardi, Judge.

April 17, 2025

PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED.

STARGEL and SMITH, JJ., concur. NARDELLA, J., dissents, with opinion.

NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF TIMELY FILED _____________________________ NARDELLA, J., dissenting, with opinion.

Vanessa Mikes (“Mikes”) appeals from a final judgment of eviction entered

in favor of the Housing Authority of the City of Fort Myers (“Housing

Authority”). Because I find the trial court erred in concluding that the Housing

Authority provided Mikes with a written warning under section 83.56(2)(a), Florida

Statutes (2021), I would reverse and remand for further proceedings.

Michelle Trunkett, of Florida Rural Legal Services, Inc., Fort Myers, for Appellant.

Alexander L. Brockmeyer and Stephen M. Smith, of Boyle, Leonard & Anderson, P.A., Fort Myers, for Appellee.
