Davenport v. Davenport

588 So. 2d 697, 1991 Fla. App. LEXIS 11453, 1991 WL 240111
District Court of Appeal of Florida·Decided November 19, 1991·No. No. 91-943·Published

Opinions

PER CURIAM.

Appellant, Thomas Davenport, appeals the dismissal of his petition for modification of child custody. We affirm.

[698] The trial court correctly ruled that “the State of Texas is the more appropriate forum to decide the issues of custody and visitation rights of the children.” See Yurgel v. Yurgel, 572 So.2d 1327 (Fla.1990); see also § 61.1316, Fla.Stat. (1987). The children have many more contacts with the State of Texas than they do with Florida. Accordingly, we affirm.

Affirmed.
