Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm the trial court’s confirmation of the arbitrator’s award upon the authority of Weeki Wachee Orchid Gardens, Inc. v. Florida Inland Theatres, Inc., 239 So. 2d 602 (Fla. 2d DCA 1970). We find no error in the trial court’s assessment of prejudgment interest in the absence of a contractual provision or the arbitral decision barring such award. See Goldberger v. Hofco, Inc., 422 So. 2d 898 (Fla. 4th DCA 1982).

AFFIRMED.

LEHAN, A.C.J., and FRANK and PARKER, JJ., concur.
