Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided March 17, 2010 · Clark, Hawkes, Roberts
29 So. 3d 1208; 2010 Fla. App. LEXIS 3328; 2010 WL 935571 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

Terry's Paint & Body Shop, Inc. v. Department of Financial Services, Division of Workers' Compensation

Opinion

PER CURIAM.

The appellant challenges an order from the Department of Financial Services (the Department) reinstating a previous stop-work order on the grounds that the appellant failed to make a scheduled payment required by the parties’ periodic payment agreement. The appellant argues it was not provided notice of its right to file a petition for a section 120.57 administrative hearing to determine whether it had, in fact, breached the parties’ periodic payment agreement or whether there had been two previous occasions of breach. As the validity of the Department’s action depends on disputed facts and there was no prior hearing, we remand the case to the Department for further proceedings. See § 120.68(7)(a), Fla. Stat. (2009); McIntyre v. Seminole County Sch. Bd., 779 So.2d 639, 641 (Fla. 5th DCA 2001).

HAWKES, C.J., ROBERTS and CLARK, JJ., concur.
