DAVID A. WOOD, APPELLANT,
v.
LORRAINE WOOD, N/K/A LORRAINE WOOD DONOVAN, APPELLEE

Fla. 4th DCA | 1992-01-08
No. 90-1263
LETTS, STONE and WARNER, JJ., concur.
590 So. 2d 1136 Florida District Court of Appeal, Fourth District (1992) Caution
Cited by 2 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the Final Judgment of Modification in all respects save one. The order increased child support to a date prior to the filing of the modification petition. This is error. See Fotorny v. Fotorny, 397 So. 2d 329 (Fla. 4th DCA 1981); Berger v. Berger, 559 So. 2d 737 (Fla. 5th DCA 1990). We therefore remand to correct the judgment to award retroactive increased child support to a date not earlier than the filing of the petition.

LETTS, STONE and WARNER, JJ., concur.
