Description
Charles Alan Cooper, the former husband, appeals an order granting the supplemental petition filed by the former wife, Robin L. Gress (formerly known as Robin L. Cooper), seeking to modify the rotating-custody arrangement approved in the final judgment of dissolution of marriage. Concluding that the trial court applied the wrong legal standard to the modification question, and that the former wife failed to satisfy the extraordinary burden to warrant modifying custody, we reverse the order and remand with instructions to reinstate the original rotating custody plan and child-support obligation. See Ring v. Ring, 834 So. 2d 216 (Fla. 2d DCA 2002) (holding that party seeking post-dissolution modification of custody has extraordinary burden to prove occurrence of substantial, material change in circumstances since final judgment that is detrimental to children's best interests; and that parties' continuing hostility and mutual failure to communicate did not constitute material change in circumstances justifying custody modification for three of parties' four children).
