CAROLYN PATRICIA BLANCO SHEEHY, APPELLANT, v. RONALD JOHN SHEEHY, APPELLEE.

PER CURIAM.

Appellant-mother, having been awarded permanent child custody by a final judgment of dissolution of marriage, appeals from a modification of that judgment which awards certain visitation rights to the paternal grandparents. We reverse.

An order granting visitation rights to a non-parent of a child whose custody has been awarded to a fit parent is unjustified and unenforceable. In view whereof, the order appealed from is, in this regard, reversed. In all other respects it is affirmed.

See Parker v. Gates (1925), 89 Fla. 76, 103 So. 126; Rodriguez v. Rodriguez (Fla.App. 3rd, 1974), 295 So.2d 328; Lee v. Kepler (Fla.App.3rd, 1967), 197 So.2d 570.

McNULTY, C.J., and BOARDMAN and GRIMES, JJ., concur.
