Whitney v. Milien
We deny Appellant’s motion for rehearing en banc and for certification to the Florida Supreme Court, but grant her motion for rehearing to clarify that we, in fact, considered the Special standard when we stated “[u]pon review of the entire record on appeal, we do not find that ‘the “totality of all errors and improprieties” are “pervasive enough to raise doubts as to the overall fairness of the trial court proceedings.”’” Whitney v. Milien, 125 So.3d 817, 818 (Fla. 4th DCA 2013) (quoting Bocher v. Glass, 874 So.2d 701, 704 (Fla. 1st DCA 2004)).

This appeal is from a non-final order denying the appellants’ motion to join a third party in the litigation below. The order is not one of the appealable non-final orders found in Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.130(a)(3) and is not otherwise appealable. Nor do we find a writ of certiorari to be appropriate were we to treat this appeal as a petition for one. See Karr v. Palm Peterbilt-GMC Trucks, Inc., 551 So.2d 1278, 1278-79 (Fla. 4th DCA 1989) (Warner, J., specially concurring) (noting that a petition for writ of certiorari directed at an order denying a motion to amend to add a party should be denied where an adequate remedy on plenary appeal is available). Therefore, we dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
Dismissed.
