3/5/15 Florida Supreme Court Oral Arguments – John Joerg Jr., etc., et al. v. State Farm Automobile Insurance Co., SC13-1768

Mr. Joerg’s son, a disabled adult, was injured when a car hit him as he was riding a bike. The Joergs had uninsured motorists coverage with State Farm and sued for benefits. The jury awarded the family $469,000 to pay for future medical expenses, but the Second District Court of Appeal granted State Farm a new trial on the basis that evidence of Medicare benefits should have been admitted to evaluate damages. The Joergs argued the 2nd DCA’s ruling conflicted with decisions from other Florida appellate courts.
