Full Opinion (555 characters)

QUINCE, J.
We initially accepted jurisdiction to review the decision of the First District Court of Appeal in Hunter v. Shaw, 182 So.3d 784 (Fla. 1st DCA 2015), based on express and direct conflict. See art. V, § 3(b)(3), Fla. Const. After further consideration, we conclude that jurisdiction was improvidently granted. Accordingly, we hereby discharge jurisdiction and dismiss this review proceeding.
It is so ordered.
NO MOTION FOR REHEARING WILL BE ALLOWED.
LABARGA, C.J., and CANADY, POLSTON, and LAWSON, JJ., concur.
PARIENTE and LEWIS, JJ., dissent.
