First DCA Rejects Constitutional Challenge to "Horizontal Immunity"
The First District Court of Appeal made quick work of a Jacksonville construction worker's constitutional challenge to the so-called "horizontal immunity" provision of the Florida Workers' Compensation Law which I discussed here. Just three days after hearing oral argument, the court "PCA'd" , i.e., affirmed without written opinion, the lower court's judgment. Note: because the First District affirmed the lower court's ruling without a written opinion, the decision is not binding as precedent.
