W.L. v. Department of Children & Family Services

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided January 22, 2001No. 1D00-878Published

1Concurring in part, dissenting in partMiner, J.

While I agree with the majority’s interpretation of the Supreme Court’s decision in In the Interest of M.F. and M.F. v. Florida Department of Children and Families (citation omitted), and its observation that the trial court framed its dependency order somewhat narrowly, my review of the relatively short record before us persuades me that the evidence adduced at the dependency hearing is more than sufficient to support the trial court’s dependency order as to both parents. Accordingly, I do not believe that remand for further proceedings is required and would affirm the order on appeal.
