BERTUGLIA v. Roe

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided July 30, 2010No. 5D09-3615PublishedCited by 2 opinions

1Per curiam

We affirm the trial court’s denial of Appellant’s motion for civil contempt. A par-

ty may not be held in contempt for violation of an order which is not clear and definite enough to provide notice of what the party is required to do in order to comply with the court’s decree. See Marcus v. Marcus, 902 So.2d 259 (Fla. 4th DCA 2005); Kranis v. Kranis, 313 So.2d 135 (Fla. 3d DCA 1975). Our affirmance is without prejudice to Appellant seeking to have the trial court set a specific visitation schedule.

AFFIRMED.
