Appellant appeals the amended final judgment of dissolution of marriage ordering, inter alia, that Appellee is entitled to recover attorneys fees. Appellant argues that the trial court did not properly reserve jurisdiction to rule that Appellee was entitled to fees and that in so doing, the court exceeded the relief that the parties requested. We reject Appellants arguments and affirm. Cf. Harbin v. Harbin, 762 So. 2d 561, 563 (Fla. 5th DCA 2000) (holding trial court erred in failing to reserve jurisdiction to determine attorneys fees in the final judgment of modification when wife requested attorneys fees in her pleadings and at the modification trial).
Moreover, Appellants arguments challenging the entitlement to fees is not ripe for appellate review. Therefore, we dismiss this issue for lack of appellate jurisdiction. See Cummings v. Cummings, 868 So. 2d 1285, 1286 (Fla. 5th DCA 2004) (“Because the courts order only determined entitlement but did not set the amount of such fees, the issue is not ripe for determination at this time.”).
AFFIRM IN PART; DISMISS IN PART.
