Michael Wesley SMITH, Appellant, v. Julie Hardy SMITH, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

March 27, 2002.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Terry Ellen Fixel and Tracy Belinda Newmark of Fixel & La Rocco, Hollywood, for appellant.

Scott Stadler of Scott Stadler, P.A., Coral Springs, for appellee.


PER CURIAM.

We reverse that portion of the final judgment of dissolution ordering the former husband to provide life insurance as it is not supported by the record.

Before a party who is ordered to pay alimony may be required to purchase or maintain a life insurance policy or a bond, there must be evidence presented as to cost, availability, and financial impact upon the payor spouse. Rykiel v. Rykiel, 795 So.2d 90
