No. 35014
THOMAS, Acting C. J., and ROBERTS, DREW, O’CONNELL and CALDWELL, JJ-, concur.
186 So. 2d 26 Florida Supreme Court (1966) Positive Treatment
Cited by 14 cases


Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM.

PER CURIAM.

By petition for a writ of certiorari we have for review an order of the Florida Industrial Commission bearing date November 16, 1965.

We find that oral argument would serve no useful purpose and it is therefore dispensed with pursuant to Florida Appellate Rule 3.10, subd. e, 31 F.S.A.

Our consideration of the petition, the record and briefs leads us to conclude that there has been no deviation from the essential requirements of law. The petition is therefore denied.

It is further ordered that a fee of $250. be awarded to the attorney for the respondent.

THOMAS, Acting C. J., and ROBERTS, DREW, O’CONNELL and CALDWELL, JJ-, concur.

We therefore approve the decision of…
