2006"Prior to [enactment of section 61.30(17)], child support could be made retroactive to the date of the child's birth, without regard to the intervening years between the date of the child's birth and [any prior] determination that such support was due." McMillian, 746 So.2d at 1236-37 ("Because the amendment to section 61.30(17) limits a child's right to past parental support, the amendment is primarily substantive in nature and thus may not receive [or should not be construed to have] retroactive application.").

1990In Voelker v. Combined Insurance Co. of America, 73 So.2d 403 (Fla.1954) the supreme court noted an important exception to the often-stated rule against laying inference upon inference: It is our considered judgment that when an inference ... is inescapable, that is to say when no contrary reasonable inference may be indulged, such inference is elevated for the purpose of further inference to the dignity of an established fact.
