Raysor v. Raysor

Kim M. Raysor seeks review of a non-final order relating to venue rendered by the trial court on July 3, 1997. The last day for invoking this courts jurisdiction by filing a notice of appeal with the clerk of the lower tribunal was Monday, August 4, 1997. See Fla. R. App. P. 9.130(b) and 9.420(e). Olthough on WednesdayWednesday, July 30, 1997, appellant placed her notice of appeal in the U.S. mail addressed to the post office box maintained by the clerk fof the trial court. The notice was not filed with the clerk, however, until the morning of TuesdayTuesday, August 5, 1997. We therefore directed appellant to show cause why the appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
