v.
L. B. MAYTAG, JR., RESPONDENT
The petition for writ of certiorari reflected probable jurisdiction in this court, and the writ was issued. Argument has been heard and upon further consideration and review of the briefs and cited cases, we are unable to find sufficient conflict with the decisions of this court or of the other District Courts of Appeal to vest jurisdiction in this court as required by the Constitution, Article V, Section 4, F.S.A.
Therefore, the writ must be and is hereby discharged and the petition for writ of cer-tiorari is dismissed.
It is so ordered.
THOMAS, ROBERTS, O’CONNELL and ERVIN, JJ., and JOHNSON, District Court Judge, concur.
THORNAL, C. J., agrees to judgment dismissing petition.

The 2000 Surtax Amendment, as written, is applicable only to Miami-Dade County, and therefore, is an unconstitutional special law. See State v. Cannon, 181 So. 2d 346, 347 (Fla.1965), cert. denied, 384 U.S. 981, 86 S.Ct. 1881, 16 L.Ed.2d 691 (1966)(holding that following the adoption of the home rule charter, the Florida Legislature is “not now authorized to enact [*263] laws which relate only to Dade County.”);…
