506 So. 2d 487

Joe D. NICHOLSON, Appellant, v. ROSS PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation, Appellee.

No. 4-86-0891.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

May 6, 1987.

Cathy Jackson Lerman of Cathy Jackson Lerman, P.A., and Butler & Pettit, P.A., Fort Lauderdale, for appellant.

Ronald M. Zakarin of Schwartz, Gold and Cohen, P.A., Boca Raton, for appellee.

PER CURIAM.

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.

ANSTEAD, DELL and WALDEN, JJ., concur.
