Non Final Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County, Emerson R. Thompson, Jr., Senior Judge. David D. Sharpe of The Law Office of Dario Diaz, P.A., Tampa, for Appellant. Otto E. Berges and Cherish A. Thompson of Thompson Berges, P.A., Miami, for Appellee.

PER CURIAM.

Non Final Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County, Emerson R. Thompson, Jr., Senior Judge.
David D. Sharpe of The Law Office of Dario Diaz, P.A., Tampa, for Appellant. Otto E. Berges and Cherish A. Thompson of Thompson Berges, P.A., Miami, for Appellee.
PER CURIAM.

We reverse the award of attorney's fees against Appellant because the trial court failed to set forth detailed factual findings describing the specific bad faith conduct that resulted in the unnecessary incurrence of attorney's fees. We remand this cause for further proceedings. See Moakley v. Smallwood, 826 So.2d 221, 227 (Fla.2002).

REVERSED AND REMANDED.

SAWAYA, TORPY and EVANDER, JJ., concur.
