I think you may have hit the nail on the head with your lawyer comment. I detect a bit of dejection in the lawyer's comment which follows. (From the Miami Herald)

Stuart Michelson, a Fort Lauderdale attorney who is representing homeowners in a class-action lawsuit, said "this ruling will do away with almost every case in this class against Citizens.''

He said there are some 300 homeowners in the class, with suits stemming from the 2004 hurricanes -- Charley, Frances, Ivan and Jeanne.

Michelson wasn't involved in the two cases decided by the state high court Thursday. But he had won a 2004 case in the Fourth District Court of Appeals in Broward County, which led to the cases that eventually made their way to the state's highest court.
