an express agreement to the contrary, the landlord has no liability for the condition of the premises. There is no implied warrant of habitability or fitness for use. The rules compass is narrowly confined to the question of liability for the cost of putting
the premises into usable condition for the tenant’s purposes. The rule does not address landlord’s liability for injuries resulting from defective conditions. The landlord owes a duty to those who come on the property to protect them from harm resulting from
known or discoverable defects. See Florida Bar CLE Florida Real Property Transactions and cases and matters referred to therein.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

doors and windows, building systems, etc.). Lease is completely silent on landlord’s obligations, with no one having explicit responsibility with regard to roof, structure, etc. Roof is now in crappy condition – to the extent that parts of ceilings are falling
down regularly. So my question is, which of these is tenant’s best remedy?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">If a business operates without an attorney or the advice of an attorney, then the business owner is asking for the worse outcome possible. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">I don’t understand why landlords don’t think they are in business. If they don’t get an attorney to do their leases, notice and evictions than
they typically get the same type of results as someone that does their own divorce. AS they say in the commercial, you can pay me now or you can pay me later. Usually paying me later amounts to more money out of the landlord’s pocket. Harry probably doesn’t
see what we see. He has most if not all his landlord clients trained so he doesn’t see some of the deceitful landlords out there, he mostly sees the ones that he deals with that are in, most case if not all, above board. I bet he hasn’t dealt with a landlord
that has so poorly maintained a rental dwelling to the point that a tenant falls through a kitchen floor because it was so rotted it wouldn’t hold her and the plywood patch didn’t hold. And I bet he would not advise his client to evict just because the tenant
wanted to make a claim for medical bills for her broken leg, which is exactly what happened. And I would guess that Harry would be astounded that that tenant, unlike the landlord, sought legal advice and found a personal injury lawyer that was willing to
take her case and astonishingly the tenant not only got her medical bills paid, she got a lot more as well as her attorney. (I can see the landlord now saying why didn’t I just pay her medical bill or make a claim on my insurance). If the landlord is so
old that he or she can’t take care of the property than they should sell it and live off the proceeds. I can go on with dozens of cases like that. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">As far as suing when there is no damage, next time you get stopped for running a stop sign see what happens when you tell the cop that no one
was injured. Just because the landlord turns off the water in a self-help eviction and the tenant get the water back on one hour later does that diminish the wrong? Am I a real dirt bag when I not only get the tenant 3 times the rent but a fee with a multiplier?
How about that landlord who took the tenant’s security deposit and wanted a second security deposit to renew the lease only to find out that the landlord had spent it and when someone like me takes that landlord to court to have the judge order the landlord
to put her security deposit back in the bank (by court order) to find out three years later when the tenant vacated that the landlord removed the court ordered security deposit from the bank three months after he was ordered to put it back in the bank. Maybe
I was too soft on my fees the first time because he could now afford to hire Akerman to fight tooth and nail to keep the security deposit. Maybe if I was awarded a contingent fee multiplier the first time the landlord would have thought twice about stealing
the tenants security deposit. I was taught that stealing is stealing and it any better because the person you stole from doesn’t know it. The only way to get landlord’s worried about stealing tenant’s security deposit is by making it costly when he does
regardless if he puts it back after he stole it. Other states have double and triple damages for unfairly holding a security deposit. And some states think that the landlords have such an unfair advantage over tenants that they propose legislation to provide
lawyers for tenants at housing court. (Harry don’t faint). <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif"">The fact is tenants are underrepresented, the bar has a procedure call contingent fee multiplier to try to even the playing field in underrepresented
areas of law by enticing more lawyers to litigate those cases by offering more money and a few lawyers have attempted to take advantage of that procedure but evidently not enough because tenants continue to be under represented in the courts.

<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Mr. Heist,<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p style="text-align:justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">That is certainly one way of looking at it. But I respectfully disagree. There is a reason that the majority, if not all, of attorneys
on this listserv primarily (if not almost exclusively) represent landlords. Tenants do not provide recyclable business, more typically cannot afford attorneys, and taking any case on a contingency basis is an extremely risky proposition no matter how solid
the case is (especially when there are no insurance companies involved!). Also, by and large, higher judgments only result when the landlord decides to fight the case to trial. I reject the vast majority of tenant cases that come my way and take them on a
contingency, and you better believe that they are not frivolous when I undertake that risk. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p style="text-align:justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Both sides deserve the same level of competent representation, and multipliers incentivize attorneys to take cases that would otherwise
result in the tenant being left unrepresented. And incidentally, multipliers are still very difficult to obtain, but in my view are absolutely warranted. It is in fact far more likely that the tenant's attorney will have his/her fees significantly reduced,
even where reasonable time is expended.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p style="text-align:justify"><font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">With the extent of discourse the legal community is currently having regarding providing greater access to civil justice for our indigent
and lower class citizens, we need to realize that throwing more money and pro bono work at the problem, while helpful, does not solve the issue of underrepresentation, and is merely a bandaid. Private attorneys
<em><i><font face="Verdana"><span style="font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">must</span></font></i></em> be incentivized to help tenants. Ask yourself: do you take contested landlord cases on a contingency? Why not? How would you manage your overhead while
your cases were pending? A bird in the hand is two in the bush, especially when there are no guarantees that you will even make a recovery at all. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p><font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Although there are many good landlords out there, you better believe that there are plenty of bad ones as well who maliciously exploit their positions of power.
Removing attorney's fees from the statute would be in complete disregard of Floridians' fundamental right to access to the justice system, and will only serve to widen the deplorable civil justice gap.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

revisited in landlord/tenant law. A number of attorneys are making their living off of awards exceeding $10,000 against small, sometimes elderly landlords who file pro se eviction cases with minor defects using Supreme Court approved forms. Often multipliers
are awarded. If the Bar is going to encourage pro se filings "to make access to the courts affordable and easier to the pro se filer" there should be some duty on the courts to give some guidance to the pro se filer. I was speaking with a judge in a smaller
county and told him about the multipliers that were being awarded in some counties. He was astounded and thought that was absurd. I agree.

<font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">First, when combined with evidence of bad faith, commingling may serve as a basis for civil theft, breach of fiduciary duty, and conversion, permitting treble damages
under civil theft in both small claims and county, and punitive damages under breach of fiduciary duty and conversion in county court. In county court, the fees will typically be higher than small claims.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify">
<font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Second, although difficult to prevail on, these additional claims may also entitle the tenant to a jury trial as independent tort actions where the lease nonetheless
contains a jury trial waiver. This provides the tenant with additional leverage. If the landlord is particularly unlikeable or the emotional elements favor the tenant, this could be devastating to the landlord if the right jury is selected and could result
in much higher damages (not to mention attorney's fees and costs). <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto;text-align:justify">
<font size="2" face="Verdana"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Verdana","sans-serif"">Third, I only know of one 2nd DCA case that says that commingling does not result in a forfeiture of the deposit. This could easily be disagreed with by other DCAs,
and since a security deposit is considered "property", I would still make the argument that if the landlord cannot reasonably abide by the notice requirements when s/he has effectively converted the funds, thereby making the deposit unidentifiable for notice
purposes, the notice would be defective. After all, how can a landlord make a claim on a deposit that technically no longer exists due to the commingling? Notice that a "deposit" is distinguished from "damages" for I believe this very reason, among others
(including to avoid offers of judgment.)<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
