: Florida Workers’ Compensation Law BlogLiberty Mutual Seeks Supreme Court Review in Steadman Case
By David A. McCranie, Esq.
On 11/30/2007, Liberty Mutual filed a Notice to Invoke the Discretionary Jurisdiction of the Florida Supreme Court in the case of Liberty Mutual v. Steadman, a Second DCA decision which I discussed here. The Second DCA held in that case that Steadman's complaint, which alleged that Liberty Mutual had engaged in a number of "outrageous" acts in the handling of Steadman's workers' compensation claim, stated a valid cause of action for intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Because no conflict or question of great public importance was certified by the district court of appeal, I assume that Liberty Mutual will contend that Supreme Court jurisdiction exists on the grounds that the decision "expressly and directly conflicts" with a previous decision of the Supreme Court or with that of another district court of appeal.
