Progressive Am. Ins. Co. v. Nationwide Ins. Co., CASE NO. 1D06-2159, COURT OF APPEAL OF FLORIDA, FIRST DISTRICT, February 14, 2007, Opinion Filed
View this case - free  

Overview: In a excess insurer's bad faith action, a primary insurer was erroneously granted summary judgment, because under Florida law, an excess insurer incurred the same duty to pay that the insured would have had in the absence of an excess insurer, and thus, the excess insurer had as much of a right to sue primary insurer for bad faith as insured did.

View this case - free  

Overview: Because parties did not have separation agreement or otherwise agree on alternative date, under § 61.075(6), Fla. Stat., trial court should have identified marital assets and liabilities as of date of filing of petition for dissolution. Including husband's post-filing debts for litigation expenses in equitable distribution was also error.

Overview: Art. X, § 4, Fla. Const., did not prohibit imposition of lien on former husband's homestead interest marital home; husband's actions--depletion of assets, failure to obey court orders to turn property over to former wife, being jailed for contempt, and filing a baseless bankruptcy--was contemptuous conduct that nullified homestead protection.
