No. 76-1873.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
Upon consideration of the record, briefs and the argument of counsel for the respective parties, we determine the trial court correctly ruled that the property was subject to the homestead exemption claimed by the former husband, notwithstanding the former husband and wife having been divorced and the wife entrusted by the decree with custody of the children and possession of the home. Osceola Fertilizer Co. v. Sauls, 98 Fla. 339, 123 So. 780 (1929); Daniels v. Katz, 237 So.2d 58 (Fla.3d DCA 1976).
Affirmed.
CROSS and DAUKSCH, JJ., concur.
ANSTEAD, J., dissents with opinion.
