Salber v. Frye
Salber v. Frye
Opinion of the Court
*193In this certiorari proceeding, Petitioner, Morgan G. Salber, asks this Court to quash the trial court's discovery order compelling him to provide documents concerning the financial arrangements between his attorney, his insurance company, and his retained expert witness. Because there has been no departure from the essential requirements of law, we deny Petitioner's request.
We recently addressed this identical issue. See Younkin v. Blackwelder, 44 Fla. L. Weekly D549, D549-50, --- So.3d ----, ----,
WHETHER THE ANALYSIS AND DECISION IN WORLEY v. CENTRAL FLORIDA YOUNG MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASS'N, 228 SO. 3D 18 (FLA. 2017), SHOULD ALSO APPLY TO PRECLUDE A DEFENSE LAW FIRM OR INSURANCE COMPANY THAT IS NOT A PARTY TO THE LITIGATION FROM HAVING TO DISCLOSE ITS FINANCIAL RELATIONSHIP WITH EXPERTS THAT IT RETAINS OR COMPENSATES FOR PURPOSES OF LITIGATION INCLUDING THOSE THAT PERFORM COMPREHENSIVE MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS UNDER FLORIDA RULE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE 1.360.
PETITION FOR WRIT OF CERTIORARI DENIED; QUESTION CERTIFIED.
ORFINGER, GROSSHANS and SASSO, JJ., concur.
