Gross vs. Net Income: Whittaker v. Whittaker, 331 So. 3d 719 - Fla: Dist. Court of Appeals, 4th Dist. 2021
Former Husband argues the trial court erred in determining his ability to pay alimony based on his gross income, rather than his net income.
The fact that the trial court must base its support determinations on net, rather than gross, income is an issue of law, see Hanson v. Hanson, 217 So. 3d 1165, 1166 (Fla. 2d DCA 2017), and therefore, is reviewed de novo, see Norman v. Padgett, 125 So. 3d 977, 978 (Fla. 4th DCA 2013).
