________________ No. 3D15-368 Lower Tribunal No. 13-12931 ________________

Pedro R. Aldama and Olga L. Aldama, Appellants, vs. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., et al., Appellees.

An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Miami-Dade County, Antonio Marin, Judge.

Ice Appellate, and Thomas Erskine Ice (Royal Palm Beach), for appellants.

Lender Legal Services, LLC, and Thomas Wade Young and Joseph B.

Towne (Orlando), for appellee Christiana Trust.

Before SUAREZ, C.J., and ROTHENBERG and FERNANDEZ, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

We affirm all aspects of the final judgment of foreclosure except for the award of attorney’s fees to the appellees, which the appellees have commendably conceded on appeal was unsupported by the record. See Palmetto Fed. Sav. & Loan Ass’n v. Day, 512 So. 2d 332 (Fla. 3d DCA 1987) (reversing the award of attorney’s fees based on the failure to provide expert testimony regarding the reasonableness of the claimed fees). We, therefore, reverse the award of attorney’s fees and remand to the trial court to issue a corrected judgment.

Affirmed in part; reversed in part; and remanded for the entry of a corrected judgment.
