Appellants,

vs.

Turnberry Village North Tower Condominium Association,
Inc., etc.,
Appellee.

An Appeal from a non-final order from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade
County, Beatrice Butchko, Judge.

Saul Ewing Arnstein & Lehr LLP, and Franklin L. Zemel, Alan R. Poppe
and Ariel R. Deray (Fort Lauderdale), for appellants.

Cole, Scott & Kissane, P.A., and Scott A. Cole, for appellee.

Before EMAS, C.J., and LOGUE and SCALES, JJ.

PER CURIAM.
 Appellants, TV 109, LLC and TV 111, LLC, appeal the trial court’s

nonfinal order denying their motion to dissolve an injunction issued by an

arbitrator with the Florida Department of Business and Professional

Regulation, following non-binding arbitration. That injunction prohibited

appellants from using their Turnberry Village residential condominium units

“as a synagogue” in violation of the Declaration of Condominium.

We find no abuse of discretion in the trial court’s denial of the motion

to dissolve. See Amezcua v. Cortez, 314 So. 3d 666 (Fla. 3d DCA 2021).

In doing so, we note the arbitrator’s seventeen-page final summary order,

which made detailed factual findings, carefully analyzed the defenses raised

by appellants, and clearly set forth the acts and conduct which, under the

facts and circumstances presented, are prohibited. See Clark v. Bluewater

Key RV Ownership Park Prop. Owners Ass'n, Inc., 226 So. 3d 276, 280 (Fla.

3d DCA 2017) (holding trial court’s injunction was neither vague nor

overbroad, noting: “Recognizing that the injunction could not delineate every

scenario that might arise, the [trial] court urged lot owners, Association

members and officers, and the defendants to ‘employ common sense,

reason, and courtesy when engaging in the rental process and when

applying and enforcing the Covenants and Rules.’”) The injunction in the

instant case plainly satisfies the requirement that it “be adequately

2
particularized and phrased in such language that it can with definiteness be

complied with.” Pediatric Pavilion v. Agency For Health Care Admin., 883

So. 2d 927, 930 (Fla. 5th DCA 2004).

Affirmed.
