green
1 sentence1996Based upon this finding, he contends that pursuant to District School Board of Lake County v. Talmadge, 381 So.2d 698 (Fla.1980), Tucker may be held individually liable for violating article I, section 23 because she forfeited the protection of sovereign immunity when she unlawfully exercised her governmental power. | 1 | 1996–1996 |
