District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District

618 So. 2d 382 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1993)

Opinion

No. 92-2441.

June 1, 1993.

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

Gary S. Gostel, Miami, for appellant.

Andrew M. Leinoff, Coral Gables, for appellee.

Before BASKIN, COPE and GERSTEN, JJ.


Bruce Anglin appeals an order denying his motion for downward modification in his alimony obligation. As did the trial court and the general master, we assume but do not decide that the alimony amount set forth in the parties' property settlement agreement was subject to modification. However, on the merits we find no abuse of discretion in the denial of the motion to modify. The former wife's need for the alimony is undisputed. The amount is one which the trier of fact could reasonably find the husband has the ability to pay. See Canakaris v. Canakaris, 382 So.2d 1197 (Fla. 1980).

The order under review is therefore

Affirmed.
