I would think that "Florida Law" would at least cover that -
In the meantime, I hope the guy gets a pro-bono lawyer and gets compensated big time, even though I don't like suing over things - of course, the lawyer would get 60%, the govt 50% on the entire judgment (can't deduct legal fees) and the poor slob would end up owing the IRS 10%! No joke...it happens
If I was on the jury, this guy would own the company.
