Kevin C. Ambler of Ambler Law Group, Tampa; and Mark S. Howard of Mark S. Howard, P.A., Tampa, for Appellant.
Peter W. Zinober and Vanessa A. Patel of Ogletree, Deakins, Nash, Smoak & Stewart, P.C., Tampa, for Appellee.
PER CURIAM.
Dr. J. James Rowsey, the prevailing plaintiff in a breach of contract action, appeals from an order granting in part and denying in part his motion for prejudgment interest related to the damages awarded to him in that case. Because this court reversed the final judgment entered in favor of Dr. Rowsey in Board of Regents v. Rowsey , 320 So.3d 954 (Fla. 2d DCA May 26, 2021), the issue presented in the instant appeal has become moot. See Rouhani v. Superior Fence & Rail of Pinellas Cnty., Inc. , 268 So. 3d 130 (Fla. 2d DCA 2019). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed as moot.
Dismissed.
