Calhoun v. Calhoun

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District
Dec 10, 1993
627 So. 2d 611 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1993)

Opinion

Nos. 93-02968, 93-02969.

December 10, 1993.

Petition for Writ of Certiorari to and Appeal from the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County; Sam D. Pendino, Judge.

Roberta Fulton Fox of Gold and Fox, P.A., Lakeland, for petitioner/appellant.

William E. Whitlock, III of William E. Whitlock, III, P.A., Tallahassee, for respondent/appellee.


Gail Calhoun petitions this court for a writ of certiorari to review an order of the circuit court which grants the respondent/appellee's motion for bifurcation of dissolution proceedings and dissolves the parties' marriage.

We are unable to conclude that the order constitutes a departure from the essential requirements of law and, therefore, deny the petition for certiorari. We also find no abuse of discretion in the circuit court's granting of respondent/appellee's motion for reduction of temporary spousal support and affirm that order. Our decision is without prejudice to petitioner/appellant to move the circuit court for modification of the support obligation upon good cause shown.

HALL, A.C.J., and PATTERSON and ALTENBERND, JJ., concur.
