VICKERS v. UNITY OF LAKE WORTH

No. 96-0122.

693 So.2d 62 (1997)

Patricia VICKERS, Appellant/Cross-Appellee, v. UNITY OF LAKE WORTH and Commercial Union Insurance Company, Appellees/Cross-Appellants.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

Rehearing Denied May 8, 1997.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Jerry J. Goodmark of Goodmark & Goodmark, P.A., West Palm Beach and Marjorie Gadarian Graham of Marjorie Gadarian Graham, P.A., Palm Beach Gardens, for Appellant/Cross-Appellee.

Janis Breustares Keyser and Jeffrey L. Alexander, of Gay, Ramsey & Warren, P.A., West Palm Beach, for Appellees/Cross-Appellants.


PER CURIAM.

The claimant appeals an order of the Judge of Compensation Claims (JCC) denying increased attendant care benefits. The employer/carrier (E/C) cross-appeal from an order of the JCC prohibiting ex parte communications by the E/C with the claimant's physicians. Because the findings in the order on appeal are supported by competent substantial evidence, the order on appeal is affirmed. We find it necessary, however, to reverse the order on cross-appeal.
