Hollingsworth v. Deutsche Bank National Trust Co.

PER CURIAM. We affirm the denial of relief under Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.540(b)(l)-(3) on grounds the motion was untimely. See NAFH Nat’l Bank v. Aristizabal, 117 So.3d 900, 901-02 (Fla. 4th DCA 2013) (holding motion to vacate final judgment pursuant to Rule 1.540(b)(2) and (3), on grounds bank committed fraud, “was untimely because the appellees filed it ‘more than 1 year’ after the ... final judgment”); Dage v. Deutsche Bank Nat’l Trust Co., 95 So.3d 1021, 1023 (Fla. 2d DCA 2012) (holding motion to vacate judgment on grounds bank misrepresented ownership of note and mortgage at the time of filing suit was untimely when “[t]he Dages waited more than two years after the entry of the final judgment before moving to vacate the default and judgment”). The trial court also properly rejected the contention that relief was available pursuant to Rule 1.540(b)(5).- See Pure H20 Biotechnologies, Inc. v. Mazziotti, 937 So.2d 242, 245 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006) (Rule 1.540(b)(5) “requires the movant to establish that significant new evidence or substantial changes in circumstances arising after the entry of the judgment make it ‘no longer equitable’ for the trial court to enforce its earlier order.” (citation omitted; emphasis omitted)). Affirmed. WOLF, BENTON, and MAKAR, JJ., concur.
