1Opinion of the Court

SHIVERS, Judge.

The employer/carrier (E/C) appeal the deputy commissioner’s order in which the deputy found that the E/C acted in bad faith and consequently ordered the E/C to pay the claimant’s attorney fee. We affirm the finding of bad faith, but remand *298for recalculation of the 'amount of the attorney’s fees in light of the subsequent reversal of the award for post-traumatic mental disorder.
