J.J. WICKER, II and Susan L. Wicker, Appellants, v. MERRILL LYNCH RELOCATION MANAGEMENT, INC., a foreign corporation, Ratner Associates, Inc., a Florida corporation, and Barbara Ratner, Appellees.
    Nos. 83-1738, 83-2412.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.
    Nov. 28, 1984.
    Rehearing Denied Dec. 21, 1984.
    Shelley H. Leinicke of Wicker, Smith, Blomqvist, Tutan, O’Hara, McCoy, Graham & Lane, Fort Lauderdale, for appellants.
    John T. Morrison, Boca Raton, and Larry Klein, West Palm Beach, for appellees, Ratner.
   PER CURIAM.

We affirm the dismissal of appellants’ complaint. However, we reverse the award of attorney fees. Although appellants’ complaint failed to withstand dismissal, it was not frivolous or entirely devoid of even arguable substance. See Whitten v. Progressive Casualty Ins. Co., 410 So.2d 501 (Fla.1982).

AFFIRMED IN PART, REVERSED IN PART.

DOWNEY, DELL and BARKETT, JJ., concur.
