By: Shapiro Goldman Babboni & Walsh The cap has already been challenged many times in the past and each time has been defeated. A Florida Supreme Court ruling struck down the cap on compensation for certain kinds of medical malpractice cases as unconstitutional. However not to be deterred, members of a “task force” created to support the interests of big business wrote to both the President of the Florida State Senate, Don Gaetz and the House Speaker Will Weatherford requesting an amendment to the Florida constitution as a means of circumventing the Supreme Court's previous rulings. Florida Attorney Bernard F. Walsh a well known supporter of injury victims rights and managing partner of the personal injury law firm Shapiro Goldman Babboni and Walsh had this to say about the latest attempt by the business lobby to undermine the authority of the Florida justice system, “the Florida Supreme court made it abundantly clear that caps on damages are unconstitutional.
