Bernstein v. Bernstein

Bernstein v. Bernstein
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 18, 2001 · Klein, Polen, Stevenson
790 So. 2d 546; 2001 Fla. App. LEXIS 9802; 2001 WL 803450 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Bernstein v. Bernstein

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The trial court terminated a temporary relief hearing in this case, after hearing the appellant wife and her witnesses testify, because the court concluded that appellant was not credible. The court refused to grant any relief, and the wife appeals. Although there may be competent substantial evidence in this record to support the trial court’s conclusion that the wife is not credible, there is no competent substantial evidence, nor any precedent, to support the denial of all relief, including child support. We therefore reverse and remand for further proceedings.

POLEN, C.J., KLEIN, and STEVENSON, JJ., concur.
