Updates in Criminal, Employment, and Real Property Law from Florida

Florida Law Update 2015 featured as a seminar at The Florida Bar’s 2015 Annual Convention. After the seminar, Legal Talk Network producer Laurence Colletti sat down with some of the presenters to discuss what’s new in Florida Law. In the first part of this podcast, Laurence interviews Denis deVlaming about criminal law from district courts, the Florida Supreme Court, and the US Supreme Court in the past 12 months.

In the second part of the podcast, Laurence interviews Manny Farach about updates in real property law and Kevin Johnson about employment law. Farach discusses mortgage foreclosure cases winding up and Marian Farms v. SunTrust Banks. Johnson talks about the well known Young vs. United Parcel Service and EEOC vs. Abercrombie & Fitch.

All three attorneys mention an ideal law change for next year in their field.
