Opinion
No. 80-2042.
June 24, 1981.
Petition for Review from the State of Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security.
Steve A. DiDio of Reeves Collier, Atlanta, Ga., for appellant.
Michael J. Rudicell, Div. of Workers' Compensation, Tallahassee, for appellee.
We affirm the order of the Bureau of Crimes Compensation denying appellant's claim for compensation. However, we remand the case for consideration of appellant's petition for attorney's fees because the petition was filed at a time when section 960.19, Florida Statutes (1979), still contemplated the possibility of a claimant's attorney being awarded a fee even upon the denial of a claim.
SCHEB, C.J., and GRIMES and CAMPBELL, JJ., concur.
