Legal Opinion

Poyner v. Smith

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided April 18, 1997No. 96-2779Published

1Per curiam

We agree with appellant that the lower court erred in not making the ordered child support reduction retroactive to the date of filing the petition. See McGee-Manis v. Manis, 657 So.2d 78 (Fla. 5th DCA 1995), Witcher v. Petty, 534 So.2d 1240 (Fla. 5th DCA 1988). However, we have no sufficient basis to reverse the amount of reduction determined by the lower court and otherwise affirm.

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; and REMANDED.

COBB, W. SHARP and GRIFFIN, JJ., concur.
