OSCAR SYGER, PETITIONER,
v.
DIANNE SYGER, RESPONDENT

Fla. 4th DCA | 2002-10-16
No. 4D02-2728
WARNER, KLEIN and SHAHOOD, JJ, concur.
828 So. 2d 449 Florida District Court of Appeal, Fourth District (2002) Caution
Cited by 4 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We grant a petition for writ of prohibition seeking to prohibit the trial court from awarding attorney’s fees where the dissolution judgment did not reserve jurisdiction to do so. Osherow v. Osherow, 727 So. 2d 1091 (Fla. 4th DCA 1999). The order granting rule 1.540 relief to amend the judgment to reserve jurisdiction for attorney’s fees is vacated, solely because it was entered after all proceedings in the trial court were stayed by our order to show cause on the petition for writ of prohibition. We agree with Sottile v. Sottile, 551 So. 2d 608 (Fla. 5th DCA 1989), which holds that inadvertently failing to include a retention of jurisdiction to award attorney’s fees can be corrected under rule 1.540. Accordingly, when the stay is no longer in effect, the trial court can consider respondent’s 1.540 motion.

WARNER, KLEIN and SHAHOOD, JJ, concur.

However, because the improper scoring of the Risk Assessment Instrument (RAI) by the circuit court is capable of repetition yet evading review, see T.T. v. Esieves, 828 So. 2d 449, 450 (Fla. 4th DCA 2002), we issue this opinion. When J.L.B. appeared before the court for an initial detention hearing, he scored nine points on the RAI.
