Chavez v. Bonnie Tile Corp.

32 FLW D1652

JCC entered order enforcing settlement and directed the parties to submit washout papers with the JCC within ten days of the date of the order. Settlement documents completed and approved by JCC. Employer/carrier mailed checks to claimant which were negotiated. Thereafter, claimant filed an appeal from the order of the judge enforcing the settlement agreement.

On a motion for a suggestion of mootness, the appellate court dismissed the appeal as moot. When a party recovers a judgment and accepts the benefits thereof, he is, on appeal, estopped to seek reversal of that judgment.
