Task: Wrong Candidate Generation
Input (English): these circumstances, requiring Robert to pay Nicole’s attorneys’ fees constituted an abuse of discretion. Gaudette v. Gaudette, 890 So.2d 1161 (Fla. 5th DCA 2004); see also Derrevere v. Derrevere, 924 So.2d 987 (Fla. 4th DCA 2006). Bridge-The-Gap Alimony Although we have found no abuse of discretion in the trial court’s award of permanent periodic alimony in this case, the trial court clearly expressed frustration during the proceeding with its lack of ability to consider a short-term alimony award to aid Nicole in making her transition to single life. Section 61.08, Florida Statutes, does not preclude such an award, and the other four district courts of appeal in Florida have expressly recognized bridge-the-gap alimony. See, e.g., Shea v. Shea, 572 So.2d 558, 560 (Fla. 1st DCA 1990) (<HOLDING>); Borchard v. Borchard, 730 So.2d 748, 753
