ORDER DENYING WRIT OF CERTIORARI
(RUDISILL, Judge.) Petitioner, GEICO Indemnity Company, seeks review of the trial court’s Order Granting Plaintiff’s Motion for Production of Defendant’s Adjuster Notes Created Prior to Anticipation of Litigation, entered on April 18, 2013.
The scope of review for a petition for writ of certiorari “is limited to a determination of whether procedural due process has been accorded, whether the essential requirements of law have been observed, and whether the decision is supported by substantial competent evidence.” Campbell v. Vetter, 392 So. 2d 6, 7-8 (Fla. 4th DCA 1980), review denied, 399 So. 2d 1140 (Fla. 1981). Based on the limited record provided on appeal, this Court cannot find that the trial court’s order departed from the essential requirements of law or will lead to irreparable harm.
It is therefore
ORDERED and ADJUDGED that:
1. The Writ of Certiorari is DENIED.
2. Respondent’s, Phoenix Emergency Services of Inverness, Motion for Appellate Fees is GRANTED, and the matter is remanded to the trial court for a determination as to the amount of the award.
