Opinion filed March 11, 2020.
Appeal from the Department of
Business and Professional Regulation.
Brigitte Ciccarello, pro se.
Scott B. Tankel and Robert L. Tankel of
Tankel Law Group, Dunedin, for
Appellee.
PER CURIAM.
Brigitte Ciccarello seeks review of the arbitration award entered in favor of
Siena Villas at Beach Park Condominium Association, Inc. Because such review is
properly obtained only by filing a timely motion for a trial de novo in the circuit court, we
have no jurisdiction to review this order. See ยง 718.1255(4)(k), Fla. Stat. (2016) ("The
right to file for a trial de novo entitles the parties to file a complaint in the appropriate
trial court for a judicial resolution of the dispute." (emphasis added)). Accordingly, we
must dismiss this appeal.
Dismissed.
