Beschreibung

Per Curiam. This case has been before this court previously. See: Sommers v. Sommers, Fla.App.1964, 169 So.2d 496, wherein we affirmed a decree of divorce but reversed that portion awarding a lump sum alimony as being inadequate, and returned the matter for further determination by the chancellor, indicating that the alimony should be increased either by a larger lump sum payment or by periodic installments. Thereafter, the matter came on for hearing subsequent to the entry of the mandate by this court, and the chancellor amended his final decree by eliminating the provision for $18,000.00 lump sum alimony and providing $200.00 a month as a periodic award of permanent alimony. This appeal has ensued, and the principal point urged for reversal is the inadequacy of the $200.00 monthly award, in view of the uncontradicted evidence that the needs of the wife were $940.00 a month and a previous finding by this court that the husband had the financial ability to respond in view of the fact that he was worth in excess of $250,000.00, a substantial portion of which was in liquid assets.
