IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA POLK COUNTY BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS and COMMERCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT, NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED Appellants, v. CASE NO. 1D11-4944 MONICA J. LYON-SPIRES, Appellee. _____________________________/ Opinion filed April 27, 2012. An appeal from an order of the Judge of Compensation Claims. Margaret E. Sojourner, Judge. Date of Accident: December 2, 2003. Thomas P. Vecchio of Vecchio, Carrier & Feldman, P.A., Lakeland, for Appellants. Wendy S. Loquasto of Fox & Loquasto, P.A., Tallahassee, Joshua C. Nelson of Smith, Feddeler, Smith & Miles, P.A., Lakeland, and Susan W. Fox of Fox & Loquasto, P.A., Orlando, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. In this workers compensation case, the Employer/Carrier (E/C) seeks review of an order of the Judge of Compensation Claims (JCC) ruling Dr. Khan remains authorized for medical care, and awarding Claimant a reasonable attorney s fee, reserving jurisdiction to set the amount. As to that portion of the order which determines entitlement to attorney s fees but reserves jurisdiction to set the amount of the fee, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. See Se. Recycling v. Cottongim, 728 So. 2d 342 (Fla. 1st DCA 1999); see also Zampell Refractories, Inc. v. Welch, 61 So. 3d 1160 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011); Wometco Enters. v. Cordoves, 650 So. 2d 1117 (Fla. 1st DCA 1995). As to the remainder of the order, we affirm without further comment. ROBERTS, WETHERELL, and ROWE, JJ., CONCUR. 2
