INDIAN RIVER HOSP. DIST. v. SANTIAGO

No. 4-86-0255.

501 So.2d 658 (1987)

INDIAN RIVER HOSPITAL DISTRICT d/b/a Indian River Memorial Hospital, Appellant, v. Carmen SANTIAGO, a Widow, Romas Sakalas, M.D., Romas Sakalas, M.D., P.A., a Corporation, Vero Orthopadics and Florida Patients Compensation Fund, Appellees.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

January 7, 1987.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Deborah A. Sawyer and Richard V. Neill, Jr., of Neill, Griffin, Jeffries & Lloyd, Fort Pierce, for appellant.

Gary W. Roberts and Theresa Dipaola of Ricci & Roberts, West Palm Beach, for appellees.

PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED.

HERSEY, C.J., and DOWNEY, J., concur.

GLICKSTEIN, J., dissents with opinion.

GLICKSTEIN, Judge, dissenting.

This is an appeal from an order which denied a hospital's motion for attorney's fees. I would remand for the taking of further testimony, out of an abundance of concern for justice — not only to the claimed insolvent or poverty-stricken individual but also to the hospital.
