CABRERA v. UNIVERSAL TRUSSES, INC.

No. AM-497.

429 So.2d 768 (1983)

Ramon CABRERA, Appellant, v. UNIVERSAL TRUSSES, INC. and Southeastern Fire Insurance Company, Appellees.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

April 12, 1983.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Albert E. Harum, Jr., P.A., Miami, for appellant.

Steven Kronenberg of Adams, Kelley, Kronenberg & Rutledge, Miami, for appellees.


SHIVERS, Judge.

In this workers' compensation case Cabrera appeals the final order of the deputy commissioner which denies his claim for wage loss benefits. The only issue raised in this appeal concerns whether the deputy commissioner erred in denying the claim for wage loss benefits because Dr. Suarez's impairment rating was not based on the AMA Guides to the Evaluation of Permanent Impairment (AMA Guides). We reverse and remand.
