Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.
There was no error in the trial court’s determination that its previous award of attorney’s fees in this matrimonial action was based on the wife’s needs and was therefore a debt in the nature of support which was not discharged by the husband’s bankruptcy. In re Spong, 661 F. 2d 6 (2d Cir.1981); In re Friedland, 18 B.R. 451, 453 (S.D.Fla.1982); Matter of Vazquez, 92 B.R. 533, 535 (S.D.Fla. 1988); cf. Scharmen v. Scharmen, 613 So. 2d 121 (Fla. 1st DCA 1993).
Affirmed.
