Opinion

No. 89-2289.

April 3, 1990. Rehearing Denied July 18, 1990.

Appeal from the Circuit Court, Dade County, Richard Y. Feder, J.

Thomas R. Schwarz, Lauderhill, for appellant.

Robert A. Butterworth, Atty. Gen., and Janet Reno, State Atty., and Richard L. Shiffrin, Asst. State Atty., for appellee.

Before BARKDULL, NESBITT and FERGUSON, JJ.


We find no error in a trial court refusing, in effect, to mandamus the state attorney to institute extradition proceedings to enforce a prior court order for bodily attachment issued in a post dissolution of marriage proceeding involving delinquent alimony and child support payments. See and compare Thompson v. Reno, 546 So.2d 83 (Fla. 3d DCA 1989), and Section 941.23(1), Florida Statutes, (1987). Therefore the matter under review is affirmed.

Affirmed.
