537 So. 2d 637 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1989)

Opinion

No. 88-1248.

December 29, 1988. Rehearing Denied January 30, 1989.

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County; R. James Stroker, Judge.

Leonard Aronoff, of Mark L. Horwitz, P.A., Orlando, for appellant.

Frank A. Taylor, Orlando, for appellee.


This is an appeal from a final judgment of dissolution. We affirm the trial court's award of child support. Canakaris v. Canakaris, 382 So.2d 1197 (Fla. 1980). However, we strike that portion of the final judgment which reserves jurisdiction to award the wife lump sum alimony because it is based on a remote future occurrence. See Kernan v. Kernan, 495 So.2d 275 (Fla. 5th DCA 1986).

AFFIRMED as modified.

SHARP, C.J., and DAUKSCH and COBB, JJ., concur.
