Citation Numbers: 506 So. 2d 487, 12 Fla. L. Weekly 1172, 1987 Fla. App. LEXIS 8043
Judges: Anstead, Dell, Walden

Although we sympathize with appellant’s position that reason and consistency would suggest that attorney’s fees be awarded upon a judicial determination that an employee has been wrongfully discharged because he filed a worker’s compensation claim, we can find no provision in the statutes for such an award. See § 440.205, Fla.Stat. (1985). We disagree with appellant’s contention that the trial court erred in failing to find and enforce a stipulation between the parties for the award of fees.
