RAYNESSA T. PARRIS v. AZARIAH B. ISRAEL

Opinion

DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA SECOND DISTRICT

RAYNESSA T. PARRIS,

Appellant,

v.

AZARIAH B. ISRAEL,

Appellee.

No. 2D22-3362

December 13, 2023

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County; Kelly A. Ayers, Judge.

Tarya A. Tribble of Tribble Law Center, P.A., Riverview, for Appellant. No appearance for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the final judgment of dissolution of marriage. We find no error in the trial court's refusal to order postjudgment interest on the retroactive child support ordered to be paid by Azariah Israel, the former husband, to Raynessa Parris, the former wife, where the trial court found that there is no child support arrearage. We note that this ruling does not preclude the award of postjudgment interest in the event a child support delinquency becomes a final judgment. See § 61.14(6)(d), Fla.

Stat. (2023) (providing that when a delinquency becomes "a final judgment by operation of law against the obligor," statutory interest shall be charged on the judgment).

Affirmed.
