Elizabeth McHUGH, Appellant, v. Kevin McHUGH, Appellee.
    No. 4D01-3202.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    June 26, 2002.
    James S. Margulis of Law Offices of Matthew S. Nugent, West Palm Beach, for appellant.
    Lewis Kapner of Lewis Kapner, P.A., West Palm Beach, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

We affirm the postjudgment order striking appellant’s claim for attorney’s fees on the ground that appellee litigated in bad faith. Appellant made no request for fees prior to final judgment, and the trial court did not reserve jurisdiction to award fees in the final judgment. See Conley v. Shutts & Bowen, P.A., 622 So.2d 559, 559 (Fla. 3d DCA 1993); Cibula v. Cibula, 578 So.2d 519, 521 (Fla. 4th DCA 1991).

WARNER, SHAHOOD and HAZOURI, JJ., concur.
