No. 97-0606.

701 So.2d 1230 (1997)

Rose HARPER-ELDER, Appellant, v. Robert Lee ELDER, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

December 3, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Matthew S. Nugent and John F. Schutz of Law Office of Matthew S. Nugent, West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Virginia D. Stow of Law Offices of W. George Allen, Fort Lauderdale, for appellee.


PARIENTE, Judge.

Appellant, Rose Harper-Elder (wife), appeals a final default judgment entered against her in favor of appellee, Robert Lee Elder (husband). We are required to reverse the final judgment because none of the orders imposing sanctions, including the order striking wife's pleadings, contain the necessary express findings of willfulness required when this ultimate sanction is imposed.
