Slip and Fall Passes House, Eaks through Senate Judiciary Committee

Slip and Fall Passes House, Barely Passes through Senate Judiciary Committee
Our priority “Slip and Fall” (negligence) legislation (HB 689) passed on 3rd reading in the House today. This bill was masterfully sponsored and shepherded through the House by Representative Aubuchon (Cape Coral).

The companion bill (SB 1224 – Gardiner) narrowly passed the Senate Judiciary Committee on a 5-4 vote. The Senate bill has one more stop (Policy and Steering Committee on Ways and Means) before going to the Senate floor.
