District Court of Appeal of Florida

An order denying an employer and carrier's (E/C) motion to involuntarily impose a lien as a condition precedent to making medically necessary modifications to a quadriplegic claimant's home is affirmed where the judge of compensation claims did not err in determining there was no statutory or legal authority to involuntarily impose a lien on claimant's home.
