The husband appeals the final judgment awarding the wife rehabilitative alimony and attorney fees. We find the trial judge erred in awarding attorney fees since the wife made no request for such fees in her pleading. Johnson v. Johnson, 346 So.2d 591 (Fla. 1st DCA 1977).

The awards of rehabilitative alimony and attorney fees are therefore

REVERSED.
