Bluestein v. Bluestein
Bluestein v. Bluestein
Opinion of the Court
Keith Bluestein appeals an order denying motions for termination of alimony and for relief from a consent order, wherein the circuit court sua sponte modified the visitation arrangement. We reverse.
Contrary to the lower court’s findings, neither party had raised an issue of visitation, nor had the parties argued it by consent at the hearing. See Walls v. Sebastian, 914 So.2d 1110 (Fla. 4th DCA 2005). Because all parties were by then residing in Virginia, it is questionable whether the circuit court would have had jurisdiction to reach the issue, had it been raised. See § 61.515, Fla. Stat. (2005). We direct the court to strike that portion of the order dealing with visitation.
REVERSED and REMANDED.
