Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

Affirmed. See Doyle v. Doyle, 789 So. 2d 499, 503 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001) (“Whether to grant an award of attorney’s fees is a matter within the trial court’s sound discretion; therefore, absent a showing of abuse of that discretion, the decision cannot be reversed.”) (citations omitted); Randle-Eastern Ambulance Service, Inc. v. Vasta, 360 So. 2d 68, 69 (Fla.1978) (holding that voluntary dismissal terminates the trial court’s jurisdiction); Miles v. Champlin, 805 So. 2d 1085, 1087 (Fla. 1st DCA 2002) (“[A] trial court has discretion to make a reduction of child support retroactive to the date the petition for modification was filed, whenever ‘equity requires.’ ”) (emphasis added); Shaw v. Shaw, 334 So. 2d 13, 16 (Fla.1976) (“It is not the function of the appellate court to substitute its judgment for that of the trial court through re-evaluation of the testimony and evidence,” but rather the test is “whether the judgment of the trial court is supported by competent evidence.”).

AFFIRMED.
