Florida State Hospital v. Heatrice

PER CURIAM. This cause is before us on appeal of an order finding claimant suffered a permanent impairment following injuries received in a work accident. After careful consideration, we affirm that ruling. However, we remand for the sole purpose of allowing the deputy commissioner to take further evidence to assign a permanent impairment rating in accordance with Section 440.-15(3)(a) 1 a-b, Florida Statutes (1987).
