No. 37923
ROBERTS, CARLTON, ADKINS and BOYD, JJ., concur., ERVIN, C. J., dissents.
219 So. 2d 688 Florida Supreme Court (1969) Caution
Cited by 24 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 September 19, 1968.

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, 32 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.

The Petition for attorney’s fee is also denied.

ROBERTS, CARLTON, ADKINS and BOYD, JJ., concur.

ERVIN, C. J., dissents.
