Morejon v. Batan
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 2, 2005 · Cope, Green, Wells
891 So. 2d 1194; 2005 Fla. App. LEXIS 986; 2005 WL 235972 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Morejon v. Batan

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Remberto Morejon, Jr., appeals a final judgment of paternity, and amendment thereto. We conclude that the child custody determination is supported by competent substantial evidence. See Rogers v. Brown, 884 So.2d 523 (Fla. 3d DCA 2004); Calam v. Calam, 752 So.2d 722 (Fla. 3d DCA 2000). The trial court resolved the conflicting testimony of the parties in favor of the appellee mother. This court is not permitted to reweigh the evidence. See Rogers; Zalis v. Zalis, 498 So.2d 505, 506 (Fla. 3d DCA 1986).

The visitation schedule was within the trial court’s discretion to order. See Canakaris v. Canakaris, 382 So.2d 1197 (Fla. 1980). The trial court’s denial of retroactive support is likewise supported by the record.

Affirmed.
