Recently, the Florida Supreme Court resolved an interdistrict conflict between the decision of the Second District Court of Appeal in Suarez Trucking FL Corp. v. Souders, 311 So. 3d.
A trucking company asked the Florida Supreme Court on Wednesday to enforce a $500,000 settlement offer made by a man suing the company over a vehicle crash, arguing that the company's acceptance of the deal and attempt to pay it means an agreement existed under the state's offer of judgment statute.
