American Hospital Supply, Dade Division v. McCarty
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided June 24, 1982 · McCord, Mills, Shivers
416 So. 2d 1182; 1982 Fla. App. LEXIS 20341 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

American Hospital Supply, Dade Division v. McCarty

Opinion of the Court

MILLS, Judge.

The employer/carrier appeal a compensation order awarding temporary total disability (TTD) and reserving jurisdiction over attorney’s fees. We reverse.

The reports of Dr. Averbuch are not competent substantial evidence to support the award. There being no other medical evidence of temporary total disability, and no work search having been conducted, the award of TTD is not supported by the record. The cause is remanded for further proceedings based on the existing record.

McCORD and SHIVERS, JJ., concur.
