NASR INTERNATIONAL TRADING CO., INC., et al., Appellant, v. RAHUL INTERNATIONAL INC., etc., Appellee.
No. 95-253.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
June 26, 1996.
An Appeal from the Circuit Court for Dade County, Gisela Cardonne, Judge.
Barrett & Rogers, Miami, and William L. Rogers, Naples, for appellant.
Roy D. Wasson, Miami, for appellee.
Before SCHWARTZ, C.J., and GODERICH and FLETCHER, JJ.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM.
We find no merit in the points raised on appeal. On the cross-appeal, however, section 68.065(1), Florida Statutes (1991), requires an award of three times the $16,634.60 bad check issued by Nasr International Trading Co., Inc. in addition to, rather than including, the face amount of the check. Krontz v. Feiler, 553 So. 2d 1302 n. 1 (Fla. 3d DCA 1989). Hence, the judgment on this basis for Rahul International, Inc., and against Nasr International Trading Co., Inc., shall be increased after remand from $49,-903.80 ($16,634.60 + 2 x $16,634.60) to $66,-538.40 ($16,634.60 + 3 x $16,634.60).
Affirmed as modified.
