- Dills v. Perez, 330 So.3d 989 (Fla. 5th DCA 2021): Prepared and filed initial brief and reply brief with the Fifth District Court of Appeal regarding the issues of durational alimony. The parties had entered into a marital settlement agreement which made the durational alimony non-modifiable. This case was a case of first impression. The case was first heard by the general magistrate who recommended termination of alimony. Following the report and recommendations issued by the general magistrate we filed exceptions and had a hearing with the circuit court judge. The circuit court judge agreed with the general magistrates' recommendations and entered an order terminating alimony. On appeal the Fifth District Court of Appeal agreed with our arguments and reversed the trial court's ruling to terminate alimony, stating, "We have not previously ruled on this issue, but our sister district courts have done so in the context of non-modifiable bridge-the-gap alimony and permanent alimony. See Taylor v. Lutz, 134 So. 3d 1146 (Fla. 1st DCA 2014) (bridge-the-gap alimony); Herbst v. Herbst, 153 So. 3d 290 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014) (permanent alimony). In both situations, the courts found that the express inclusion of “non-modifiable” in the parties' MSAs prohibited the termination of alimony upon remarriage. Taylor, 134 So. 3d at 1148–49; Herbst, 153 So. 3d at 293. We agree with those results, and to the extent that the nature of the alimony award is relevant, find the reasoning of Taylor and Herbst applies equally to bridge-the-gap, permanent, and durational alimony awards in MSAs." Dills v. Perez, 330 So.3d 989, 990 (Fla. 5th DCA 2021). The Fifth District Court of Appeal further agreed that, "Therefore, because the clear and unambiguous language of the parties' MSA controls over the statute, we “must treat the written instrument as evidence of the agreement's meaning and the parties' intention.” Taylor, 134 So. 3d at 1148 (citations omitted). “To do otherwise would most certainly vault form over substance.” Id. (citing Underwood v. Underwood, 64 So. 2d 281, 288 (Fla. 1953)). Accordingly, we hold that Former Husband's obligation to pay Former Wife durational alimony for 48 months did not terminate upon Former Wife's remarriage and, as a result, the trial court erred by failing to order enforcement of the MSA's alimony provision." Dills v. Perez, 330 So.3d 989, 991 (Fla. 5th DCA 2021). 330 So.3d 989 Dills v. Perez, 330 So. 3d 989 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2021), reh'g denied (Dec. 9, 2021), 2021
