Michael Adrian White, Appellant,
vs.
State of Florida Department of Revenue, Child Support Program, et al., Appellees.
An Appeal from the State of Florida Department of Revenue, Child Support Program.
Michael Adrian White, in proper person.
James Uthmeier, Attorney General, and Sarah C. Prieto, Assistant Attorney General (Fort Lauderdale), for appellee State of Florida Department of Revenue, Child Support Enforcement.
Before SCALES, C.J., and LOBREE and GOODEN, JJ.
PER CURIAM. Appellant Michael Adrian White (Father) appeals an October 29, 2025
final administrative child support order. The record reflects that, despite
receiving notice from appellee Florida Department of Revenue, Child
Support Program (the Department) of his right to an administrative hearing,
Father provided no response to the Department’s notice and did not request
a hearing. See § 409.2563(4), Fla. Stat. (2025). Thus, pursuant to sections
61.30 and 409.2563 of the Florida Statutes, the Department entered the
challenged final order.
While Father makes several arguments on appeal, these arguments
were not preserved below, and therefore, Father has waived his ability to
challenge the sufficiency of the evidence relied upon by the Department in
support of the Department’s determination of Father’s support obligations.
Chavez v. Dep’t of Revenue, Child Support Program, 393 So. 3d 791, 792
(Fla. 3d DCA 2024) (“By waiving his right to a hearing, the Father waived his
ability to challenge the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the
Department’s determination of his child support obligations.”); see §
409.2563(7)(b), Fla. Stat. (2025) (“If the parent from whom support is being
sought does not file a timely request for a hearing, the parent will be deemed
to have waived the right to request a hearing.”).
Affirmed.
