   ORDER DENYING MOTION TO DISMISS

PER CURIAM.

Appellant plaintiff filed this personal injury suit against two defendants as a result of two different accidents, a little more than one year apart, which combined to cause an injury which could not be apportioned. The trial court dismissed the claim against the defendant involved in the second accident without prejudice to plaintiffs refiling a separate suit. Plaintiff has appealed that order, and defendant has moved to dismiss on the ground that it is not an appealable order because it is without prejudice to filing a separate suit.

The fact that the dismissal is not with prejudice is not determinative of whether the order is final and therefore appealable. Smith v. St. Vil., 714 So.2d 603 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998). This order, which is a dismissal of the plaintiffs case against one party, is a final order, and is therefore appealable. Smith (reviewing by final appeal an order dismissing a complaint as to an insurer because the insurer was improperly joined as a party). The motion to dismiss is therefore denied.
