Nicholson v. Ross Products, Inc.
506 So. 2d 487; 12 Fla. L. Weekly 1172; 1987 Fla. App. LEXIS 8043
(Southern Reporter, Second Series)
Nicholson v. Ross Products, Inc.
Opinion of the Court
Although we sympathize with appellant’s position that reason and consistency would suggest that attorney’s fees be awarded upon a judicial determination that an employee has been wrongfully discharged because he filed a worker’s compensation claim, we can find no provision in the statutes for such an award. See § 440.205, Fla.Stat. (1985). We disagree with appellant’s contention that the trial court erred in failing to find and enforce a stipulation between the parties for the award of fees.
