Florida Court Rules Legal Fees Clause Doesn't Bind Future Owners
The Florida Supreme Court ruled that attorney-fees clauses in property agreements do not automatically apply to future owners. The case involved Crown Castle South LLC and RJ's International Trading LLC, where RJ's won $40,000 for trespass but sought attorney fees under the original easement agreement. The court found the legal-fees clause unrelated to land use or enjoyment.
