BURCH v. BURCH (2019)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Matthew Aaron BURCH, Appellant, v. Michelle Nicole BURCH, Appellee.

No. 1D18-2783

Decided: August 21, 2019

Clark H. Henderson of Oberliesen & Henderson, Shalimar, for Appellant. Michael T. Webster of Michael T. Webster, P.A., Shalimar, for Appellee.

Matthew Aaron Burch, the former husband, appeals from a supplemental order in this post-dissolution of marriage case. We affirm without discussion the portion of the order awarding proceeds from the sale of the former marital home to Michelle Nicole Burch, the former wife, and finding the former husband in contempt for failing to pay child day care expenses. We dismiss as premature that portion of his appeal challenging the former wife's entitlement to attorney's fees. Because the court's ruling reserved jurisdiction to determine the amount of fees, the judgment on this issue is nonfinal. ^* See McGee v. McGee, 264 So. 3d 1087, 1089 (Fla. 1st DCA 2019). As to the issues relating to a prior supplemental child support order entered on December 5, 2017, we dismiss for lack of jurisdiction because the former husband failed to timely appeal that order.

Affirmed in part and Dismissed in part.
