Florida Bar Business Law Section Publishes Michael Kolcun's Analysis of the Florida Supreme Court's Punitive Damages Pleading Standard
Partner Michael Kolcun and former SGR intern Amani Ambay authored a piece for the Business Law Section of The Florida Bar examining the Florida Supreme Court's recent decision clarifying the standard for pleading punitive damages.
In the article, the authors explain how the Court resolved a split among Florida's appellate courts by holding that parties seeking to add a punitive damages claim are not required to meet the "clear and convincing evidence" standard at the pleading stage. They also discuss the decision's practical implications for litigants, including its potential impact on discovery and litigation strategy.
