Do you have the case that the FL AG lost at the 11th Circuit?

What is the update on a landlord fees/charges/surcharges for credit card use to pay monthly rent?
Are more landlords now passing along a fee? I understood the FL AG to have lost in 11th Cir, and petitioned for Cert. which was not granted.
Thoughts from the group???
Thank you.

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Convenience fees and charges
Many property managers are now using ACH and credit card payments for rent. The vendors they use to process this often charge a fee plus of course the recipient of the funds have to pay the 2-5% to the credit card companies.
I am constantly getting questions on whether this cost can be passed on to the tenant by charging a higher amount or charging the tenant a convenience fee.
The statute at issue is FS 501.0117
Brian Wolk has stated that this is in the Federal Courts.
Does anyone have any guidance?
