** ** ** ** ** CASE NO. 3D00-3642 LOWER TRIBUNAL NO. 99-2407

Opinion filed December 5, 2001. An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Dade County, Fredricka G. Smith, Judge. Sutton & Montoto and Osvaldo Diaz, for appellant. Zack Kosnitzky and Steven A. Schultz; Robert A. Ginsburg, MiamiDade County Attorney, and Scott Fabricius, Assistant County Attorney, for appellee. Before JORGENSON, LEVY, and GODERICH, JJ. PER CURIAM.

Barrett Tool Rental, Inc. (BTR) appeals an order dismissing with prejudice its petition for injunctive relief. We affirm. BTR sought to prevent the county from levying on its property and contested an ad valorem tax assessment for tax years 1997 and

1998. Because BTR's action comes too late, the trial court correctly
ruled that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction.1 See
