FORE GOLF, INC., etc., Appellant/Cross-Appellee, v. DEVCON INTERNATIONAL CORPORATION, et al., Appellees/Cross-Appellants.
    No. 98-285.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fifth District.
    June 4, 1999.
    John C. Briggs, Orlando, and Jonathan C. Hollingshead and Lora A. Dunlap of Fisher, Rushmer, Werrenrath, Dickson, Talley & Dunlap, P.A., Orlando, for Appellant.
    Arthur J. England, Jr., Jerold I. Budney of Greenberg Traurig Hoffman Lipoff Ro-sen & Quentel, P.A., Miami, and David S. Oliver, of Greenberg Traurig Hoffman Li-poff Rosen & Quentel, P.A., Orlando, for Appellees.
   PER CURIAM.

The parities have dismissed by stipulation the companion appeal, Devcon International Corporation v. Fore Golf, etc., Case No. 97-2993. Devcon International Corporation and Insurance Company of North America have voluntarily dismissed their cross appeal in this cause.

The only matter remaining is Fore Golf, Inc.’s appeal of a denial of attorney’s fees for Fore Golfs defense of a counterclaim brought by Devcon and denial of the application of a contingency risk multiplier on another award of fees. We affirm the trial court’s orders on these matters. See State Farm Fire & Casualty Co. v. Palma, 629 So.2d 830, 833 (Fla.1993) (application of contingency fee multiplier is discretionary with the trial court).

ORDERS AFFIRMED.

W. SHARP, HARRIS and PETERSON, JJ., concur.
