v.
DAVID W. GREEN, APPELLEE

Fla. 1st DCA | 1982-07-13
No. AI-296
BOOTH, WENTWORTH and WIGGIN-TON, JJ., concur.
416 So. 2d 859 Florida District Court of Appeal, First District (1982) Positive Treatment
Cited by 4 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We find that there is competent substantial evidence to affirm the deputy commissioner’s order awarding claimant wage loss benefits. Further, the deputy was not in error by reserving jurisdiction for entry of an order for attorney’s fees and costs. However, the award of a fee to claimant’s attorney would be proper only pursuant to the provisions of Section 440.34, Florida Statutes (1979).

BOOTH, WENTWORTH and WIGGIN-TON, JJ., concur.
