Charlotte County Public Schools v. Gary

35 FLW D1706

Judge erred in awarding hearing aids and attorney's fees pertaining to obtaining those benefits where claimant presented no medical evidence proving that, within a reasonable degree of medical certainty, her hearing loss was causally related to her compensable accident.  JCC rejected doctor's testimony that the need for a hearing aid was not related to the compensable accident.  However, there was no evidence of record showing that the need for the hearing aid was related to the compensable accident.
