Moore v. Wadkins

557 So. 2d 694 | Fla. Dist. Ct. App. | 1990

PER CURIAM.

The employer/carrier seek review in case number 89-1990 of a workers’ compensation order that awarded death benefits to the surviving parents of Allan Shane Wad-kins. Subsequently the Judge of Compensation Claims also awarded attorney’s fees in connection with the claim and that order was also timely appealed in case number 89-2972. The cases were consolidated by order of this court. Now appellants move for remand, showing that transcripts of the hearings held on attorney’s fees cannot be prepared and the parties have been unable to create a statement of evidence in accordance with Fla.R.App.P. 9.200(b)(4). Accordingly, we sever the previously-consolidated cases and reverse and remand case number 89-2972 for a hearing de novo, see Arnold Lumber Co. v. Harris, 469 So.2d 786 (Fla. 1st DCA 1984).

Time for service of appellants’ initial brief in ease number 89-1990 is extended to 30 days from this date.

ERVIN, WENTWORTH and BARFIELD, JJ., concur.
