Moldoff v. Schneider

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District

743 So. 2d 1210 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 1999)

Opinion

No. 99-1185.

Opinion filed November 10, 1999.

Appeal of a non-final order from the Circuit Court for the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit, Broward County; Linda Vitale, Judge; L.T. No. 98-18688 (58).

John Beranek of Ausley McMullen, Tallahassee, for appellants.

Vicki L. Plant, Fort Lauderdale, for appellee.


The grandparents of minor children appeal an injunction barring them from the presence of their grandchildren when the father of the children, their former son-in-law, is present. The father had filed a petition for injunction against repeat violence but named only the grandfather, who in turn counterclaimed against him. Although the grandmother of the children in question was not a party to the proceeding, the trial court's injunction nevertheless expressly names her as a party enjoined. Appellee concedes that the trial court erred on this point. Upon the concession of appellee that the grandmother was not under the court's jurisdiction, we reverse the injunction as regards the grandmother. In all other respects, we affirm.

REVERSED AS TO GRANDMOTHER;AFFIRMED AS TO GRANDFATHER.

DELL, FARMER and TAYLOR, JJ., concur.
