Opinion
Supreme Court of Florida WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 2022
CASE NO.: SC20-366 Lower Tribunal No(s).: 4D18-3014; 562009CA006060AXXXHC
R.J. REYNOLDS TOBACCO vs. JACQUELINE P. BURGESS, COMPANY ETC.
Petitioner(s) Respondent(s)
Upon review of the response to this Court’s order to show cause dated May 18, 2022, and the reply, it is ordered that the petition for review is hereby dismissed.
MUÑIZ, C.J., and CANADY, POLSTON, COURIEL, and GROSSHANS, JJ., concur. LABARGA, J., concurs in result with an opinion. FRANCIS, J., did not participate.
NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE REHEARING MOTION AND, IF FILED, DETERMINED.
LABARGA, J., concurring in result.
Given the parties’ resolution of this case and their mutual
request to dismiss this matter, I concur with this Court’s order
dismissing this case.
Nonetheless, I reaffirm my dissent to this Court’s holding in
Prentice v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., 338 So. 3d 831 (Fla. 2022),
because I strongly believe that proof of fraudulent concealment in an CASE NO.: SC20-366 Page Two
Engle-progeny case does not require proof of reliance on a specific
statement by an Engle defendant.
