Opinion

No. 92-806.

September 7, 1993. Rehearing Denied November 23, 1993.

An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Dade County; Celeste Hardee Muir, Judge.

Brian J. Giller, in pro. per.

Susan R. Giller, in pro. per.

Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and BARKDULL and COPE, JJ.


There was no error in the trial court's determination that its previous award of attorney's fees in this matrimonial action was based on the wife's needs and was therefore a debt in the nature of support which was not discharged by the husband's bankruptcy. In re Spong, 661 F.2d 6 (2d Cir. 1981); In re Friedland, 18 B.R. 451, 453 (S.D.Fla. 1982); Matter of Vazquez, 92 B.R. 533, 535 (S.D.Fla. 1988); cf. Scharmen v. Scharmen, 613 So.2d 121 (Fla. 1st DCA 1993).

Affirmed.
