PER CURIAM.
The judge of compensation claims was without jurisdiction to enter an order appointing claimant's wife as his guardian, or even to request such an appointment, before the filing of a claim. § 440.17, Fla. Stat. (1995). We therefore grant the petition for certiorari and quash the order appointing a guardian.
