Description
We have for review the decision in Enterprise Leasing Co. v. Jones, 750 So. 2d 114 (Fla. 5th DCA 1999), which certified conflict with Fabber v. Wessel, 604 So. 2d 533 (Fla. 4th DCA 1992), on the issue of whether the disclosure of confidential mediation information to the trial judge is in and of itself sufficient to disqualify the trial judge. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 3(b)(4), Fla. Const. For the reasons set forth below, we approve the decision in Enterprise Leasing, which held a judge is not automatically disqualified from presiding because of knowledge of confidential mediation information, and disapprove the Fourth District's decision in Fabber to the extent that it is inconsistent with this opinion.
