                          CONFESSION OF ERROR

      HENDON, J.
      Miami Dade County MRI Corporation petitions this Court for a writ of

certiorari, seeking to quash the following order entered by the circuit court, sitting

in its appellate capacity:   (1) an order granting United Automobile Insurance

Company’s motion for attorney’s fees, and (2) an order denying Miami Dade

County MRI Corporation’s motion for attorney’s fees under sections 627.428(1)

and 627.736(8) of the Florida Statutes. Based on United Automobile Insurance

Company’s proper confession of error, we grant the petition, quash the orders

under review, and remand for the entry of an order granting Miami Dade County

MRI Corporation’s motion for appellate attorney’s fees filed under sections

627.428(1) and 627.736(8).

      Petition granted; orders quashed; and remanded with directions.
