Roberts v. Carnival Corp. — U.S. Court of Appeals, Eleventh Circuit

The firm secured a full reversal in the Eleventh Circuit for a cruise passenger whose personal-injury claim had been dismissed based on a one-year limitations period in the carrier's ticket contract. The Court of Appeals vacated the dismissal and remanded, holding that the trial court improperly relied on documents outside the complaint and that dismissal on the ticket-contract limitations period was not proper at the pleading stage. No. 19-14993 (11th Cir. Aug. 24, 2020).

Glover v. Vasallo — Florida Third District Court of Appeal

The firm secured certiorari relief in Florida's Third District Court of Appeal after the trial court severed the client's replevin claim from his related fraud, conversion, and negligence claims. The appellate court granted the petition and quashed the severance, holding the claims were “inextricably intertwined” and that severing them departed from the essential requirements of law. 314 So. 3d 447 (Fla. 3d DCA 2020).

Mitchell v. Puig — Circuit Court, Broward County (Sham Pleadings Stricken; Default Entered)

The firm secured an order striking the defendants' answer, affirmative defenses, and counterclaim as a sham and entering default in favor of the client, a homeowner who sued the neighboring property owners for trespass and unauthorized use of his dock. After an evidentiary hearing, the Circuit Court found that the defendants had no knowledge of the lawsuit and never authorized the pleadings filed in their names, struck all defensive pleadings and the counterclaim, entered default on the client's claims, and granted the client's request for attorneys' fees and costs. Case No. CACE23000396 (Fla. 17th Jud. Cir., Broward Cnty.); order entered March 24, 2026.
