In re Adoption of K.C. McG.
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided September 17, 1986 · No. 4-86-0198 · Downey, Letts, Walden
493 So. 2d 1139; 11 Fla. L. Weekly 1984; 1986 Fla. App. LEXIS 9713 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)
In re Adoption of K.C. McG.

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We find, based on the record, that the trial court abused its discretion when it limited fees under section 63.097, Florida Statutes (1984), to no more than $500, regardless that a larger fee would be patently warranted and reasonable.

We reverse and remand with respectful instructions to reconsider the award.

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

DOWNEY, LETTS and WALDEN, JJ., concur.
