| JCC Stanton (Jacksonville) (Rex Hurley & Amy Raub) (4-21-2026) – Denied claimant’s Motion for Summary Final Order, Motion for Protective Order and Motion to Limit Discovery. The claimant’s MSFO sought adjudication of two different periods of TTD benefits, penalties, interest and costs. The E/C responded, indicating that one claimed period of TTD, penalties and interest was paid, and the E/C already agreed to costs. The JCC found that period of TTD, penalties, interest and costs moot, and the other period of TTD, penalties, interest and costs outstanding, but denied summary final order on same because the claimant failed to attach any medical evidence of TTD for the claimed period. The JCC denied the claimant’s motion for protective order which sought to prohibit cumulative or duplicative nonparty discovery absent a court order, citing an unwillingness to forecast what discovery the E/C will seek, but objections to specific discovery requests can be filed. The JCC also denied the claimant’s motion to require the E/C to identify other documents, witnesses or issues not already disclosed, finding it premature before the pretrial stipulation is due.
