District Court of Appeal of Florida

In the context of dissolution proceedings and child custody disputes, Florida Statutes section 61.13(3) does not require factual findings as to each enumerated factor for determining custody, and it is sufficient for a trial judge to make a finding as to the best interests of the minor child - provided such finding is supported by substantial competent evidence.
