District Court of Appeal of Florida·Decided May 22, 2015·No. 2D14-2828·Published·Cited by 1 cases

Opinion

KELLY, Judge.

We dismiss the appeal because the appellant, Yankeetown Management LLC, lacks standing to challenge the final judgment of foreclosure in this case. Yankee-town did not seek to intervene before the final judgment was rendered; therefore, it is a legal stranger to the action. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.020(g)(1) (defining “Appellant” as a “party”); Portfolio Invs. Corp. v. Deutsche Bank Nat’l Trust Co., 81 So.3d 534, 536 (Fla. 3d DCA 2012) (holding that generally a nonparty is a stranger to the record and lacks standing to appeal an order rendered by the lower court).

Appeal dismissed.
