King v. Lord Colony Enterprises

400 So.2d 856, (Fla.App. 1 Dist., Jul 10, 1981)

Claimant timely paid benefits but at incorrect rate. Proper adjustments were made to correct average weekly wage and court ruled that even though TT was timely paid the payments were made in the incorrect rate. Accordingly penalties were due absent a showing by the employer/carrier that there was a reasonable excuse for failure to pay full benefits.
