   PER CURIAM:

The appeal in this case is patently frivolous; moreover, the appellant knew that the appeal was frivolous when it was filed. The appeal is dismissed. On receipt of our mandate, the district court shall award the appellee any damages caused by the appeal, including a reasonable attorney’s fee. The appellee is also awarded double costs. See Fed.R.App.P. 38; Collins v. Amoco Production Company, 706 F.2d 1114 (11th Cir.1983).

DISMISSED.
