ALTENBERND, Judge.

              Murray J. Klauber appeals a nonfinal order entered after the entry of a

final judgment.1 We affirm the order, concluding that the only error in the order will



              1
               The order on appeal was entered after January 1, 2015, and the rule
relied upon for jurisdiction is not Florida Rule of Appellate Procedure 9.130(a)(4).
Instead, Mr. Klauber appeals the order as a mandatory injunction or an order
never have any effect and does not require reversal.

              This case arises from a foreclosure proceeding filed in 2011 by First

Federal Bank of Florida. The action named Mr. Klauber and Two Huts, Inc. as

defendants. The trial court entered a uniform final judgment of foreclosure, and the

relevant property was sold at a foreclosure sale. The sale did not satisfy the full amount

of the judgment. In April 2012, the Bank obtained a deficiency judgment against Mr.

Klauber and Two Huts, Inc. in the approximate amount of $220,000. Neither party

appealed that judgment.

              The Bank obtained a writ of execution and ordered the sheriff to execute

upon Mr. Klauber's fifty-percent interest in an active corporation. Mr. Klauber did not

immediately turn over his stock. Accordingly, in November 2014, the Bank filed a

motion to compel Mr. Klauber to surrender the stock to the sheriff. After a hearing on

the matter, the trial court granted the motion and entered the order on appeal. The

order contains provisions in addition to a simple requirement that Mr. Klauber surrender

the stock to the sheriff. If Mr. Klauber had failed to surrender the stock, the order

provided that the stock would be "deemed cancelled" and purported to require the

corporation, which was not a party to these proceedings, to issue replacement shares

and deliver them to the sheriff. It further ordered Mr. Klauber, as a fifty-percent owner of

the corporation, not to "dissipate or remove corporate assets," not to allow the

corporation to "incur any liability," and not to "interfere with the operation of [the




determining the right to immediate possession of property. See Fla. R. App. P.
9.130(a)(3). Because the result in this case would be the same if we were to review the
order under our certiorari jurisdiction, it is not necessary to determine the nature of our
jurisdiction.


                                             -2-
corporation's] business pending the sale" of the stock by the sheriff. This relief was not

requested by the Bank in its motion or at the hearing.

              To Mr. Klauber's credit, he complied with the order by turning over the

stock. Thus, the portions of the order potentially cancelling the stock, ordering

replacement stock, and limiting the activities of the nonparty corporation never went into

effect and will have no relevance in the future.

              After turning over the stock, Mr. Klauber filed this appeal. He also filed a

motion in the trial court to stay the order pending this appeal. The trial court ultimately

stayed the last portion of the order that required Mr. Klauber not to dissipate or remove

corporate assets, not to allow the corporation to incur any liability, and not to interfere

with the operation of the business pending the sale of the stock by the sheriff. The trial

court did not stay the order requiring delivery of the stock and would not stay the sale of

the stock unless Mr. Klauber posted a bond. He did not post the bond and did not

attempt to have this court review the issue. The Bank has supplemented the appendix

with documents establishing that the surrendered stock was sold by the sheriff at public

auction for an amount in excess of the judgment during the pendency of this appeal.2

              On appeal, Mr. Klauber first argues that the trial court erred in ordering

him to surrender his shares to the sheriff. He argues that the order is a mandatory

injunction that was entered without all of the findings required for an injunction. We

conclude that, although the order compels Mr. Klauber to take an action, that fact alone




              2
               We do not know whether the stock was sold as a block or whether the
sale was designed to determine a price per share with only those shares necessary to
satisfy the judgment being sold. The terms of the sale are not involved in this appeal.


                                            -3-
is not enough to classify the order as an injunction. Most orders require a party to take

some action or face a consequence.

              Corporate stock can be property subject to execution. See § 56.061, Fla.

Stat. (2014). A sheriff who has been properly instructed to levy upon property subject to

execution has a duty to levy upon the property. § 30.30(1), Fla. Stat. (2014). The trial

court's order required Mr. Klauber to cooperate with the sheriff in the performance of the

sheriff's lawful duty. We are unconvinced that a trial court lacks the discretionary power

to enter such an order. See § 678.1121(5), Fla. Stat. (2014) (providing that a creditor

"is entitled to aid from a court of competent jurisdiction, by injunction or otherwise," to

reach a security owned by the debtor in order to satisfy a judgment). We are likewise

unconvinced that a postjudgment order "otherwise" assisting the sheriff with lawful

instructions to levy by compelling a judgment debtor to surrender his stock to the sheriff

must fulfill all of the requirements of an order granting a temporary or permanent

injunction.

              Mr. Klauber also argues that the trial court erred in issuing the relief that

was not requested by the Bank. The Bank admits that the trial court erred in entering

the unrequested relief. It argues, however, that this aspect of the appeal is now moot

since the stock has been sold. Mr. Klauber responds that an involuntary payment of a

judgment does not moot an appeal. In support of his argument, he cites to Ronette

Communications Corp. v. Lopez, 

, 1360 (Fla. 5th DCA 1985), and other

similar cases.

              Ronette and the other cited cases all involve appeals challenging a money

judgment that resulted in the involuntary payment. In this case, the counterpart would




                                             -4-
have been an appeal of the deficiency judgment. Mr. Klauber is correct that if he had

timely appealed the deficiency judgment, his decision to pay the judgment while the

appeal was pending would not have mooted the appeal. But in this case the money

judgment is final and is not the subject of the appeal. This court has no power in this

appeal to alter or reverse the money judgment.

              We are unconvinced that we need to decide whether this appeal is fully

moot in a technical sense. The trial court did not err in ordering the delivery of the stock

to the sheriff. Given that the stock has been sold and the judgment satisfied, the

erroneous portion of the order on appeal, which was stayed during the appeal, will

never have any application. We see no reason to reverse the erroneous portion of the

order and require the trial court to revise the order under these circumstances.

              In the order on appeal, the trial court reserved jurisdiction to award

attorneys' fees. It has not yet determined an entitlement to or an amount of fees. Thus,

if Mr. Klauber is ever aggrieved by a ruling as to fees, he may appeal that ruling.

              Affirmed.
