HAYES & CARABALLO, PL, ROSEMARY HAYES, ET AL., APPELLANT,
AUTO-OWNERS INSURANCE COMPANY, APPELLEE
35 So. 3d 936
Florida District Court of Appeal, Fifth District (2010)
Caution
Cited by 21 cases
Opinion of the Court
We affirm the trial court’s order denying Appellants’ request for attorney’s fees under section 57.105, Florida Statutes (2008), or, alternatively, under the court’s inherent authority. We find no abuse of the broad discretion vested in the trial court when considering such matters. We reverse only as to the trial court’s failure to liquidate the attorney’s fees awarded as a sanction in connection with the August 13, 2007, order on Appellants’ motion to compel.
AFFIRMED in part; REVERSED in part; and REMANDED.
SAWAYA, ORFINGER and TORPY, JJ., concur.

Mizner v. State, 154 So. 3d 391 (Fla. 2d DCA 2014)…ved that the minor was waiting. In those cases, unlike this one, the target had a realistic expectation of imminent contact with the minor. See Hudson, 745 So. 2d at 1000; Carlisle v. State, 105 So. 3d 625, 626-27 (Fla. 5th DCA 2013); Bist v. State, 35 So. 3d 936, 941-42 (Fla. 5th DCA 2010).

But drawing the distinction between a preparatory act and an overt act is often difficult, and depends on the facts of each case. Bist v. State, 35 So. 3d 936, 941 (Fla. 5th DCA 2010); Hudson v. State, 745 So. 2d 997, 1000 (Fla. 2d DCA 1999).
