W & J Construction Corp. v. Green
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided July 13, 1982 · Booth, Ton, Wentworth, Wiggin
416 So. 2d 859; 1982 Fla. App. LEXIS 20502 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

W & J Construction Corp. v. Green

Opinion of the Court

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.
