Layeni v. Layeni,
843 So. 2d 295 (Fla. 5th DCA 2003).
In
this dissolution of marriage action the trial court ruled that the
husband’s (a medical doctor) accounts receivables could not be
considered in valuing the husband’s business.
Ms.
Lippincott represented the wife on appeal. The appellate court ruled
that the medical accounts receivables must be included in the valuation
of the business so that a proper equitable division of the parties’
marital assets could be made. The court also ruled that: 1) the wife was
not entitled to an award of permanent alimony; 2) the wife's
rehabilitation plan was adequate and should have been considered; and 3)
the order to maintain the husband's pre-existing life insurance policy
was not supported by sufficient findings. The case was reversed and
remanded for further proceedings.
