Alachua County Bd. of County Com'rs v. Griffis

498 So.2d 977, 11 Fla. L. Week. 2503, (Fla.App. 1 Dist., Dec 02, 1986)

Court affirmed Deputy Commissioner's finding that claimant was permanently and totally disabled. Permenant total disability can be awarded even though there is no medical testimony to the effect that the claimant is permanently and totally disabled. Exhaustive but unsuccessful work search along with other criteria was sufficient to establish claimant's PT status.
