My Running List for 2008

Posted on January 15, 2007 by Juan Antunez

This is my running list of significant Florida trust and probate cases for 2008. Like any compilation the criteria for inclusion is somewhat subjective, so I'm certainly not guaranteeing that I've identified every case that could conceivably be related to probate matters in Florida. However, if you think I've missed an important trust/probate-related case that deserves wider notice please let me know. As new cases are published they'll be added to this list.

All of the cases listed below are also cross referenced by topic, so if you ever want to come back to that homestead case you remember seeing you can simply jump to all of the homestead cases and scroll through those.
