Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided August 19, 2005 · Barfield, Davis, Kahn

908 So. 2d 1149; 2005 Fla. App. LEXIS 12762; 2005 WL 1991857 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The claimant is not entitled to recover workers’ compensation benefits from the employer/carrier because the claimant filed a valid notice of election to be exempt from the provisions of chapter 440, Florida Statutes. See Battle v. Gentry, 898 So.2d 263 (Fla. 1st DCA 2005); § 440.10(1), Fla. Stat. (2002). Therefore, the JCC’s ruling is affirmed.

AFFIRMED.

KAHN, C.J., BARFIELD and DAVIS, JJ., concur.
