District Court of Appeal of Florida

Dismissal of a petition for benefits in a workers' compensation case is affirmed where competent substantial evidence supported a JCC's findings that claimant had not established jurisdiction under chapter 440 because the employment accident occurred in Alabama, the subject employment agreement was made in Alabama, and no record evidence established that claimant's employment was principally located in Florida.
