¶4WENTWORTH, Judge.
¶5Appellant seeks review of an order by which his complaint was dismissed for failure to state a cause of action. Appellant contends that the court erred in its construction of section 768.125, Florida Statutes. In dismissing appellant's complaint the court below relied upon the Fourth District's decision in Bankston v. Brennan,480 So.2d 246 (Fla. 4th DCA 1985), pending on certification, Fla. Supreme Court Case No. 68,281. In Bankston the Fourth District held that section 768.125, Florida Statutes, does not create a cause of action against a social host for third party injuries resulting from the intoxication of a minor to whom alcoholic beverages have been furnished at a private function. We agree with the rationale of the decision in Bankston, and we therefore affirm the order appealed.
¶6BOOTH, C.J., and THOMPSON, J., concur.
