District Court of Appeal of Florida
State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co. v. Stylianoudakis, 4D05-3598
A final cost judgment for plaintiffs is reversed on grounds of untimeliness pursuant to a recent Florida Supreme Court decision, which held that Florida Rule of Civil Procedure 1.525 established a bright-line time requirement for motions for costs and attorney-s fees, and that a reservation of jurisdiction in a final judgment does not enlarge the time for filing such motions.
