When property is discovered after a Florida marital settlement agreement has been signed, is this grounds to set aside the marital settlement agreement? The answer depends on the circumstances surrounding the discovery - could the existence of the property been confirmed if the complaining party had investigated this before signing the agreement? Did the other party fraudulently conceal the existence of the property? Overlooked property was an issue in the case Maradona v. Villafañe, 3D23-2085 (Fla. 3d DCA September 10, 2025).
