CORDELL v. CORDELL

No. 3D09-1646.

30 So.3d 647 (2010)

Brett Randall CORDELL, Appellant, v. Beatriz E. CORDELL, a/k/a Beatriz Pelaez, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.

March 17, 2010.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Lori Barkus, Weston, for appellant.

Christine Ritter, for appellee.

Before RAMIREZ, C.J., and ROTHENBERG, J., and SCHWARTZ, Senior Judge.


RAMIREZ, C.J.

Brett Randall Cordell appeals an order denying exceptions to the report of the general magistrate in which the court affirmed the retroactive modification of child support in the underlying dissolution of marriage action. We reverse the judgment because there is no legal basis for an award retroactive to the date of the final judgment, rather than the date of the child support modification petition.
