District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided August 22, 2013No. 1D12-5387Published

1Per curiam

In this workers’ compensation appeal, Claimant argues the Judge of Compensation Claims (JCC) erred in denying his ongoing entitlement to permanent total disability (PTD) supplemental benefits, as well as attorney’s fees, costs, penalties, and interest. On cross-appeal, the Employer/Carrier (E/C) argues the JCC erred in finding the PTD supplemental benefits were payable through Claimant’s 66th birthday. Concluding that, under the plain language of the applicable statute and prior decisions of this Court, Claimant *1118is entitled to ongoing PTD supplemental benefits, we reverse the order on appeal.
