An appeal from an order of the Judge of Compensation Claims. Margaret E. Sojourner, Judge. Date of Accident: November 9, 2010. Mark L. Zientz of the Law Offices of Mark L. Zientz, P.A., Miami, for Appellant. Tara L. Sa'id of the Law Offices of Amy L. Warpinski, Jacksonville, for Appellees. PER CURIAM. In this workers compensation appeal, the claimant seeks review of an order denying approval of $254.83 in costs stipulated to by the employer and carrier (E/C). The E/C filed a notice with this Court stating that they did not intend to file an answer brief and that they have no counterargument to the issue before [the court]. We treat this notice as a confession of error and, accordingly, reverse the order denying approval of the stipulated costs and remand for entry of an order approving the E/C s payment of $254.83 in costs to the claimant. REVERSED and REMANDED with directions. PADOVANO, WETHERELL, and SWANSON, JJ., CONCUR. 2
