PER CURIAM.

Bauchman, 253 So. 3d 1143, 1148 (Fla. 1st DCA 2018) (“[T]he party seeking relief must show some need; it is not enough to simply show that the adverse party’s ability to pay the fees is greater than the party seeking relief or that an award is based on the relative financial strain of paying attorney’s fees.”) (quoting Carlson v. Carlson, 719 So. 2d 936, 936 (Fla. 4th DCA 1998)).
