Westberry v. Westberry

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided January 17, 2001No. 2D99-2363Published

1Opinion of the Court

BLUE, Judge.

Suzanne A. Westberry appeals the final judgment dissolving her long-term marriage to Lawson L. Westberry, II. She presents several issues related to the alimony award and the denial of her motion for attorney’s fees. She contends that the trial court erroneously imposed rehabilitative alimony, thus resulting in an inadequate permanent alimony award; erroneously ordered an automatic termination of the permanent alimony award; and improperly denied her motion for attorney’s fees. We agree with Mrs. Westberry’s arguments and, accordingly, reverse and remand for further proceedings.
