Forte v. Forte
Florida District Courts of Appeal
Forte v. Forte, 478 So. 2d 460 (1985)
10 Fla. L. Weekly 2522; 1985 Fla. App. LEXIS 16676
Bart, Baskin, Hub, Schwartz
Forte v. Forte
Opinion of the Court
The trial court correctly held that, in contrast to the provision of the parties’ separation agreement and the final judgment of dissolution requiring the husband to provide a home for the wife and children, which we held in Forte v. Forte, 320 So.2d 446 (Fla. 3d DCA 1975), cert. denied, 351 So.2d 406 (Fla. 1977), was a modifiable aspect of child support, the portion which grants the wife an option to purchase the home conferred a vested property right which is for that reason not subject to modification. Farkas v. Farkas, 426 So.2d 1213 (Fla. 4th DCA 1983); see Peacock v. Peacock, 439 So.2d 984 (Fla. 3d DCA 1983). Accordingly, the order dismissing the husband’s application for modification of the option is
Affirmed.
