Poyner v. Smith
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided April 18, 1997 · Cobb, Griffin, Sharp
693 So. 2d 636; 1997 Fla. App. LEXIS 4326; 1997 WL 186290 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Poyner v. Smith

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

We agree with appellant that the lower court erred in not making the ordered child support reduction retroactive to the date of filing the petition. See McGee-Manis v. Manis, 657 So.2d 78 (Fla. 5th DCA 1995), Witcher v. Petty, 534 So.2d 1240 (Fla. 5th DCA 1988). However, we have no sufficient basis to reverse the amount of reduction determined by the lower court and otherwise affirm.

AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; and REMANDED.

COBB, W. SHARP and GRIFFIN, JJ., concur.
