District Court of Appeal of Florida

Morell v. Ruiz

207 So. 3d 293, 2016 Fla. App. LEXIS 16672

District Court of Appeal of Florida·Decided November 9, 2016·No. No. 3D16-1115·Published

Opinion

SUAREZ, C.J.

Appellant Stephanie Morell appeals an Order requiring her to file a petition for relocation under Florida Statute Section 61.13001 (2016). We reverse because that statute has no application to the facts of this case. Appellant resided in Palm Beach County at the time the underlying action was filed and thus is not required to file a petition to obtain the trial court’s permission to “relocate” to Palm Beach County.

Reversed.
