    METROPOLITAN DADE COUNTY TRANSIT AUTHORITY, Appellant, v. McArthur EDWARDS, Appellee.
    No. 70-992.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
    May 18, 1971.
    Wicker, Smith, Pyszka, Blomqvist & Davant, and John McMath, Miami, for appellant.
    Weiner & Rubin, Miami, for appellee.
    Before PEARSON, C. J., CHARLES CARROLL, J., and ADAMS, ALTO, Associate Judge.
   PER CURIAM.

Appellant is a workman’s compensation self-insurer; as such it occupies the position of insurance carrier in this litigation. This appeal is from an order denying equitable subrogation pursuant to F.S. § 440.39, F.S.A.

The trial judge assigned an incorrect ground for his decision. We find, however, that the order appealed should be affirmed upon a different ground, cf. Berkman v. Miami National Bank, Fla.App.1962, 143 So.2d 535. Under authority of United States Fidelity & Guaranty Company v. Harb, Fla.App.1964, 170 So.2d 54, the trial court correctly denied equitable subro-gation in this case.

Affirmed.
