Appeal Filed In Major Florida Workers Comp Case

The Florida Supreme Court could wade into a case that potentially has major implications for the state’s workers-compensation insurance system.The legal group Florida Workers Advocates last week asked justices to take up the case, according to an online docket. The case stems from arguments that a key part of the workers-compensation system is unconstitutional, but the 3rd District Court of Appeal last month ruled that plaintiffs, including Florida Workers Advocates, did not have legal standing and that the case was moot.
