Fischer v. Fischer
Citations: 882 So. 2d 435; 2004 Fla. App. LEXIS 12496; 2004 WL 1886015Docket: No. 3D04-427
Court: District Court of Appeal of Florida; August 25, 2004; Florida; State Appellate Court
The court affirms the prior ruling, referencing Cole v. Cole and Marrone v. Miami Nat’l Bank for precedent. Appellee Kenneth C. Fischer's motion for attorney’s fees and costs on appeal is remanded to the trial court for determination. The trial court may award reasonable appellate attorney’s fees if Fischer establishes entitlement under section 61.16, Florida Statutes, and the principles set forth in Rosen v. Rosen. The court finds the wife's appeal to be without merit and instructs the trial court to consider the relevant factors from Rosen. The order on appeal is upheld, and the case is sent back to the trial court for further proceedings regarding Fischer's motion for fees and costs.
