View this case - free  

Overview: A trial court abused its discretion in failing to award a former wife any portion of her former husband's Florida Retirement System (FRS) pension. That his pension rights had not yet vested did not make them of "nominal" value," as the evidence established that the husband's current FRS balance was worth over $ 17,000.

Overview: Appellees' claim against a decedent's estate for "sweat equity" was actually a claim for past wages and was thus partially time-barred under ? 95.11(4)(c), Fla. Stat. (2001), which provided that an action to recover wages had to be commenced within two years. Therefore, wages owed to appellees were limited to the two years before they filed suit.

Overview: In-school search of juvenile's wallet, which contained marijuana, violated Fourth Amendment, as teacher who reported him to school security did not smell marijuana while in his presence; she simply associated him with her suspicion that a student he was talking to possessed marijuana. Suspicion by association was not "reasonable suspicion."

View this case - free  

Overview: As protective supervision had been terminated with no adjudication of a mother's children as dependent, under ? 39.507(5), Fla. Stat., a trial court was without jurisdiction to later reinstate supervision and remove the children from their mother. To do so, the Department of Children and Families was required to file a new dependency petition.

Overview: Under ? 61.30(2)(b), Fla. Stat. (2006), trial court erred in imputing income to a voluntarily unemployed former wife of $ 77,000 per year, as it failed to make the requisite findings concerning her work history, qualifications, and the prevailing earnings in the area for jobs available to her, and she testified she could only earn $ 30,000 a year.
