Florida Power Corp. v. Baker
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided February 9, 1982 · Ervin, McCord, Shaw
410 So. 2d 179; 1982 Fla. App. LEXIS 19154 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Florida Power Corp. v. Baker

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

In this workers’ compensation order, we affirm as to all points raised except the portion of the attorney’s fee award based on the time the claimant’s attorney spent in preparation and presentation of his claim for an attorney’s fee, which is clearly not awardable. See Osceola Petroleum Co. v. Heard, IRC Order 2-3347 (February 13, 1978). Therefore, this cause is remanded so that the deputy commissioner can accordingly reduce the attorney’s fee award.

McCORD, ERVIN and SHAW, JJ., concur.
