JCC Clark (Ft. Myers) (Rex Hurley & Jonathan Cooley) (9-22-23)- Denied claimant’s Motion to Enforce Settlement Agreement. The claimant argued the parties reached a verbal settlement agreement that included all essential terms. The claimant’s attorney subsequently emailed the E/C’s attorney stating the claimant agreed to settle his claim for the figures discussed. The email further sought confirmation that the E/C remained responsible for unpaid bills and would issue a $2,000.00 advance to claimant. Although the claimant argued these additional terms were nonessential, the JCC found the parties never reached an enforceable agreement and denied the motion. Click here to view Order
