    ALIMENTA (U.S.A.), INC., Appellant, v. PENDER PEANUT CO., Appellee.
    No. UU-145.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    Oct. 17, 1980.
    Raymond L. Syfrett, of Fitzpatrick, Sy-frett & Hutto, Panama City, for appellant.
    Richard Wayne Grant, Marianna, for ap-pellee.
   PER CURIAM.

Sua sponte, this Court dismisses the appeal on the ground that it was untimely filed. The order appealed from is an order denying Appellant’s motion to dismiss for improper venue. Such an order is interlocutory, and a motion to reconsider its entry is not authorized by Florida Rules of Civil Procedure 1.530(a). Thus, the filing and pendency of a motion for reconsideration does not toll the time for taking an appeal. “M Enterprises, Inc. v. Baumgartner, 362 So.2d 282 (Fla. 1st DCA 1978).

WENTWORTH and JOANOS, JJ., and LILES, WOODIE A., Associate Judge (Retired), concur.
