Murphy v. Reynolds
District Court of Appeal of Florida

1Opinion of the CourtBenton, C.J.
Shannon Murphy appeals a final injunction for protection against repeat violence, entered against her at the behest of Katherine Reynolds. Because the trial court’s finding that Ms. Murphy committed “repeat violence” against Ms. Reynolds lacks competent, substantial evidence in support, we reverse.
The trial court decreed that the injunction remain in place until October 27, 2010, when it expired. This case is not moot, however, because collateral legal consequences flowing from such an injunction outlast the injunction itself. See Rodman v. Rodman, 48 So.3d 1022, 1022 (Fla. 1st DCA 2010)…
