PER CURIAM.
We have determined that we are bound by previous opinions from this
court, and we therefore affirm. See Am. Cap. Assurance Corp. v. Leeward Bay at
Tarpon Bay Condo. Ass'n, 306 So. 3d 1238 (Fla. 2d DCA 2020), review granted, SC20-
1766, 2021 WL 416684 (Fla. Feb. 8, 2021); see also Am. Cap. Assurance Corp. v.
Cayman I at Tarpon Bay Condo. Ass'n, 46 Fla. L. Weekly D221 (Fla. 2d DCA Jan. 22,
2021); Villagio at Estero Condo. Ass'n v. Am. Cap. Assurance Corp., 46 Fla. L. Weekly
D193 (Fla. 2d DCA Jan. 20, 2021). As this court did in Leeward Bay and Cayman I, we
certify conflict with Citizens Property Insurance Corp. v. Demetrescu, 137 So. 3d 500
(Fla. 4th DCA 2014), Citizens Property Insurance Corp. v. Michigan Condominium
Ass'n, 46 So. 3d 177 (Fla. 4th DCA 2010), and Sunshine State Insurance Co. v.
Corridori, 28 So. 3d 129 (Fla. 4th DCA 2010).
Affirmed; conflict certified.
