Opinion:
PER curiam;.
Here, as conceded by the parties, the trial court erred in awarding attorney fees without taking testimony or conducting a hearing. We reverse the award of attorney fees and remand with instructions to conduct a hearing and accept testimony as to the amount of a reasonable fee.
Otherwise the final judgment is affirmed.
Affirmed in part; reversed in part; and remanded for further proceedings.
