1. “"The sole question presented by the appellant is whether the court ruled correctly that the defendant had submitted himself to the jurisdiction of the court when he filed a motion which questioned the jurisdiction of the court over his person and coupled it with other motions which were addressed to the merits of the cause. In the order appealed, the trial judge expressly declined to pass upon the merits of the motion addressed to the jurisdiction of the person of the defendant. The judge failed to apply Rule 1.11(b), Florida Rules of Civil Procedure, 30 F.S.A., which provides: `No defense or objection is waived by being joined with one or more other defenses or objections in a responsive pleading or motion' and Rule 1.11(g) which provides: `A party who makes a motion under this rule may join with it the other motions herein provided for and then available to him.' State ex rel. Eli Lilly & Company v. Shields, Fla. 1955, 83 So.2d 271 ; Greenberg v. Greenberg, Fla.App. 1958, 101 So.2d 608 ."”
