FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE, DIVISION OF RISK MANAGEMENT, Appellant, v. Joan C. DAVIES, Appellee.
    No. QQ-355.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    Feb. 13, 1980.
    Thomas F. Woods of Woods, Johnston & Erwin, Tallahassee, for appellant.
    Jon D. Caminez, Tallahassee, for appellee.
   PER CURIAM.

AFFIRMED.

We note that appellee has not filed a separate motion for attorney’s fees, but has instead raised the question of appellate fees in her brief as a point on cross appeal. Under our rules, the proper procedure for requesting appellate attorney’s fees is to file a separate motion no later than the time for service of the reply brief. Rule 9.400, Fla.R.App.P. In the future, failure to follow this procedure will result in a denial of the fees requested.

MILLS, C. J., and McCORD and BOOTH, JJ., concur.
