GWENDOLYN VEREEN, AND THE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND REHABILITATIVE SERVICES, APPELLANTS,
v.
LONNIE LEROY VEREEN, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 1991-07-03
No. 90-1522
SMITH, NIMMONS and MINER, JJ., concur.
581 So. 2d 1004 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1991) Positive Treatment
Cited by 10 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We treat this appeal as a petition for writ of certiorari, grant the petition, and quash the order entered below directing the parties to submit to a Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) blood test in order to determine the paternity of two children, already determined as a matter of law to be the issue of the parties’ marriage. Appellee/former husband requested the HLA test in the context of proceedings instituted by appel lant/former wife to enforce the child support provisions of the parties’ final judgment of dissolution. The final judgment of dissolution is res judicata and bars any redetermination of the paternity of the children. Decker v. Hunter, 460 So. 2d 1015 (Fla. 3d DCA 1984); Johnson v. Johnson, 395 So. 2d 640 (Fla. 2d DCA 1981).

SMITH, NIMMONS and MINER, JJ., concur.
