GOSLINE v. GOSLINE

No. 82-1061.

435 So.2d 413 (1983)

Carl D. GOSLINE, Appellant/Cross-Appellee, v. Michele GOSLINE, Appellee/Cross-Appellant.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.

August 4, 1983.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Charlene D. Kelley of Baldwin & Dikeou, Fern Park, for appellant/cross-appellee.

Michael J. Bittman of Dempsey & Slaughter, P.A., Orlando, for appellee/cross-appellant.

ORFINGER, Chief Judge.

We reverse the award of permanent alimony of $50.00 per month to the wife which the trial court granted on the stated ground that "the disparity of incomes in the long run would make that reasonable." Need of the receiving spouse and the ability to pay of the paying spouse are still the primary elements to be considered when awarding permanent periodic alimony. Canakaris v. Canakaris, 382 So.2d 1197
