Overview: A trial court properly required a husband to maintain a life insurance policy in order to secure the wife's alimony award under § 61.08(3), Fla. Stat. (2004), based on her limited earning ability and the likelihood of arrears due to his financial misconduct; however, the trial court erred in failing to make specific findings supporting the order.

Ojurongbe v. State, No. 3D07-1537, COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, THIRD DISTRICT, January 23, 2008, Opinion Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: Because the question of whether defendant's failure to list a 1989 Florida drug conviction based on the entry of a plea on his application for an immigrant visa was for the immigration courts, and not a Florida trial court to decide, the trial court erred in denying his Fla. R. Crim. P. 3.850 motion to vacate said conviction.

View this case - free  

Overview: As a former husband offered evidence to show that his income had been severely reduced for almost a year, a trial court's "directed verdict" in favor of the former wife in the husband's motion to modify his child support and alimony obligations under § 61.14(1)(a), Fla. Stat. (2006) was an abuse of discretion.

View this case - free  

Overview: Defendant's conviction on three counts of capital sexual battery was affirmed; while victim's third statement to authorities recanted claims defendant abused her, her trial testimony was consistent with guilt, and explanation that family pressure led her to recant was confirmed by letter from her father, which was properly admitted into evidence.
