Nicols v. Nicols

Nicols v. Nicols
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided October 12, 1988 · Dell, Letts, Walden
531 So. 2d 1066; 13 Fla. L. Weekly 2317; 1988 Fla. App. LEXIS 4501; 1988 WL 103933 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Nicols v. Nicols

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The only issue meriting discussion is asserted in the cross appeal. The former wife here claims an entitlement to prejudgment interest in accordance with Argonaut Insurance Co. v. May Plumbing Co., 474 So.2d 212 (Fla. 1985). We agree, the former wife is entitled to prejudgment interest since the husband did not comply with the agreed upon financial agreement adopted by the trial court in the final judgment.

Accordingly, the trial court erred in not awarding prejudgment interest. We reverse and remand the cross appeal for entry of a judgment in accordance herewith.

We affirm the main appeal.

LETTS, DELL and WALDEN, JJ., concur.
