    UNITED AUTOMOBILE INSURANCE COMPANY and James Baylis, Petitioners, v. RIVERSIDE MEDICAL ASSOCIATES, INC., a/a/o Normandel Burke, Ismail Sarabi and Jorge De La O, Respondents.
    No. 4D14-1535.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    March 4, 2015.
    Thomas L. Hunker, Miami, for petitioners.
    Philip D. Parrish of Philip D. Parrish, P.A., Miami, and Henry A. Seiden, West Palm Beach, for respondents.
   PER CURIAM.

Defendants United Automobile Insurance Company and James Baylis seek cer-tiorari review of the circuit court’s nonfinal order: (1) denying their motion to dismiss the plaintiffs premature bad faith action; and (2) overruling their objections to the plaintiffs premature bad faith discovery requests.

We grant the petition as to the discovery objections. See State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co. v. Tranchese, 49 So.3d 809, 810 (Fla. 4th DCA 2010) (granting petition for certiorari on the basis that, “until the obligation to provide coverage and damages has been determined, a party is not entitled to discovery related to the claims file[] or to the insurer’s business policies or practices regarding handling of claims”) (citation omitted).

We dismiss the petition as to the denial of the motion to dismiss. See State Farm Ins. Co. v. Ulrich, 120 So.3d 217, 219 (Fla. 4th DCA 2013) (“A nonfinal order denying a motion to dismiss an insurance bad faith action is not subject to interlocutory review via petition for writ of certiorari.”). However, our dismissal is without prejudice to the defendants’ moving to abate the bad faith action. See Tranchese, 49 So.3d at 810 (“We grant the petition [for certio-rari] as to the abatement, because the final determination of coverage and damages for the underlying claim has not been made, which must precede a statutory bad faith action.”).

Petition granted in part, dismissed in part.
