Winter Park Imports, Inc. v. JM Family Enterprises, Inc.

1 Citing case

  1. Smith v. Unum Life Ins. Co. of Am.

    275 So. 3d 757 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. 2019)

    According to our case law, the trial court is not precluded from considering the time an expert spent in preparing to testify, but may exercise broad discretion in this regard. See Winter Park Imps., Inc. v. JM Family Enters., Inc., 77 So. 3d 227, 231–32 (Fla. 5th DCA 2011). Thus, we conclude that the trial court acted within its discretion in refusing to tax the expert's preparation time for the deposition and evidentiary hearing.
