District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District

586 So. 2d 1345 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1991)

Opinion

No. 91-00225.

October 14, 1991.

An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Escambia County; Ben Gordon, Judge.

Michael A. Morris of Myrick, Silber Davis, P.A., Pensacola, for appellant/cross-appellee.

Laura E. Keene of Beroset Keene, Pensacola, for appellee/cross-appellant.


This cause is before us on appeal from a final judgment on remand, increasing the former husband's monthly child support obligation. The former wife contends that the increase in child support should have been made retroactive to the date of the original final order. On cross appeal, the former husband contends that award should not have been increased.

We affirm as to the increase in child support. However, the circumstances justifying the increased award existed on the date of the original final order. We therefore reverse and remand with instructions to make the award retroactive to the date of the original final order.

BOOTH, MINER and WOLF, JJ., concur.
