Fifth District Reverses Rosen Fees

The Fifth District Court reversed a post-judgment fee award Friday in Colado v. Caryi, a case in which the lower court had awarded the Former Husband his fees from the Former Wife based on vexatious litigation on her part.  The Fifth District Court, after an examination of Rosen v. Rosen, 696 So.2d 697 (Fla. 1997) and its progeny, found that there was no evidence of vexatious behavior on the Former Wife’s part, and reversed the award.
