Menendez v. Progressive Express Insurance Co. green
fla · 2010
2 sentences

2023Menendez involved an amendment to Florida’s “Required Personal Injury Protection” (“PIP”) statute that imposed a pre-suit notice requirement similar to the requirement imposed by section 627.70152. 35 So. 3d at 876–77.

Progressive Express Insurance Co., 35 So. 3d 873 (Fla. 2010), for the proposition that portions of the statute not implicated in this case—a pre-suit notice requirement and fee shifting provision—impair substantive contractual rights.
