Head Matter:
Nancy Jean Deal NADON, Appellant, v. BUREAU OF CRIMES COMPENSATION, DIVISION OF WORKERS’ COMPENSATION, Appellee.
No. 80-2042.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.
June 24, 1981.
Steve A. DiDio of Reeves & Collier, Atlanta, Ga., for appellant.
Michael J. Rudicell, Div. of Workers’ Compensation, Tallahassee, for appellee.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We affirm the order of the Bureau of Crimes Compensation denying appellant's claim for compensation. However, we remand the case for consideration of appellant's petition for attorney's fees because the petition was filed at a time when section 960.19, Florida Statutes (1979), still contemplated the possibility of a claimant's attorney being awarded a fee even upon the denial of a claim.
SCHEB, C. J., and GRIMES and CAMPBELL, JJ., concur.
