Supreme Court of Florida

Pat Bainter, as Non-Parties, Appellants v. League of Women Voters of Florida, Ap — Polston, J…

November 13, 201439 Fla. L. Weekly Supp. 689

Summary

Justice Polston concurs in the result, agreeing that under Florida law the non‑parties waived any First Amendment privilege by failing to raise it timely, and that this state‑law waiver satisfies federal law because the parties had a reasonable opportunity to assert the claim. The opinion also notes that a general trade‑secrets claim does not bar production of the documents.
