This is a case that I came across after Ivan that I saved but never had to actually argue to a Court.  I do not recall finding anything at the time in Florida that was similar.

Mr. Young:

The case seems to be pretty much dead on for the question posited.  However, and this is a very legitimate question, have you had much success getting courts here to follow this, or any other out of state, ruling?  And the obvious question...I assume there is nothing analogous from Florida?

I have a situation where a client of mine, that suffered a loss from Hurricane Wilma, is having difficulty in a claim under its insurance policy in recovering the cost to repair/replace their roof up to the current  code.  Apparently there was an error in the 2004 Code which went  into effect on October  1, 2005 that omitted the 25% provision and the insurer is questioning whether they are obligated to pay for the new code upgrade even though the County is requiring same. Wilma hit on October 25,2005 but the Code was not corrected until after that date.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
