130 So. 2d 630 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | 1961
The appellee filed suit for divorce in Dade County, against her husband who resided in Pennsylvania. The husband answered. A final decree was entered granting the wife a divorce and ordering the husband to pay $6,000 to the wife plus $150 per week installments of alimony and $3,000 for her attorney.
The rulings of the court which were challenged are shown to have been made in proper exercise of discretion and are supported by the record. But we find it necessary to modify the order for payment
Paragraph two of the final decree is hereby modified to require payment of $3,150 in place of the sum of $6,000 therein ordered to be paid, and, as so modified, the decree is affirmed.
Modified and affirmed.
. The decree included the following provisions :
“That the Defendant, William Ehrlich, be and he is hereby ordered to pay unto the Plaintiff, Bryann Ehrlich, the sum of Six Thousand ($6,000.00) Dollars on or before September 15, 1960, as and for monies due the Plaintiff from the Defendant, and that he is further ordered to pay the weekly sum of One Hundred Fifty ($150.00) Dollars per week each and every week commencing Monday, August 15, 1960, as and for permanent alimony.
“The Defendant, William Ehrlich, be and he is hereby ordered and directed to pay unto the Plaintiff, Bryann Ehrlich, as and for attorney’s fees for Ben Cohen, Esquire, the sum of Three Thousand ($3,000.00) Dollars.
“This Final Decree disposes of any previous orders heretofore entered with respect to monies due the Plaintiff from the Defendant, for alimony and attorney’s fees.”
