JCC Bound by Evidence in Setting Amount of Claimant's Attorney's Fees

This case reminds us that in setting the amount of attorney's fees owed to the claimant's attorney under the pre-2003 version of s.440.34, Fla. Stat., the JCC is bound by the evidence before him and may not use his own, independent judgment regarding the number of hours reasonably expended by the attorney or a reasonable hourly rate.
