IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA SUZANNE DEERE, Appellant, NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED v. CASE NO. 1D04-4326 SARASOTA COUNTY SCHOOL BOARD and INTEGRATED ADMINISTRATORS, Appellees. _____________________________/ Opinion filed October 11, 2005. An appeal from an order of the Judge of Compensation Claims. Diane B. Beck, Judge. Keith A. Mann, Sarasota, and Bill McCabe, Longwood, for Appellant. Ben H. Cristal of Sponsler, Bennett, Jacobs & Cristal, P.A., Tampa, for Appellees. PER CURIAM. In an earlier appeal, this court remanded this case for the JCC to consider whether appellant demonstrated estoppel. See Deere v. Sarasota County Sch. Bd., 880 So. 2d 825 (Fla. 1st DCA 2004). Appellant had the burden to make this showing. See id. at 826. The JCC found that appellant did not change her position to her detriment based on the E/C s misrepresentation. Because this finding is supported by the record, we AFFIRM the JCC s denial of benefits on the ground that the statute of limitations expired. AFFIRMED. KAHN, C.J., BARFIELD and DAVIS, JJ., CONCUR. 2
