...Therefore, if it exists, the authority to award attorney's fees in connection with the modification of paternity orders lies within chapter 742. Section
742.031, Florida Statutes (1989), provides for the award of attorney's fees when an order of paternity is entered. However, section
742.06 only states that the court "shall retain jurisdiction of the cause for the purpose of entering such other and further orders as changing circumstances of the parties may in justice and equity require." Because the award of attorney's f...
