1. ““Florida law does not authorize multiple motions to compel arbitration. Section 682.03(1), Florida Statutes (2005), authorizes an ‘application to the court’ to proceed with arbitration, not applications .... Because an order denying a motion to compel arbitration is non-final, a motion for rehearing or reconsideration is not authorized. See Josephthal Lyon & Ross Inc. v. C & A Fin. Programs Inc., 709 So.2d 1384 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998). Appellants had 30 days from January 24, 2005 to appeal the order denying their motion to compel arbitration. The pendency of a motion to dismiss did not toll the time for filing the notice of appeal. Appellants cannot avoid the consequences of their failure to appeal the January 24 order and revive their right to appeal by filing a renewed motion for arbitration after the time to appeal has expired.””
