Kelly v. Myers
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided November 9, 2006 · Orfinger, Sawaya, Torpy
940 So. 2d 1287; 2006 Fla. App. LEXIS 18737; 2006 WL 3228535 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Kelly v. Myers

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellant challenges that portion of the final judgment of paternity that changed her child’s surname from Kelly to Myers. We conclude that this case is controlled by our decision in McKay v. Haikey, 860 So.2d 1046 (Fla. 5th DCA 2003), and accordingly reverse that portion of the judgment that effected the name change and remand this cause with directions that the child’s surname be restored to Kelly.

REVERSED and REMANDED.

SAWAYA, ORFINGER and TORPY, JJ., concur.
