2007 Florida Statutes
Short title.
1774.201 Short title.--This act may be cited as the "Asbestos and Silica Compensation Fairness Act".
History.--s. 1, ch. 2005-274.
1Note.--Section 10, ch. 2005-274, provides that "[t]his act shall take effect July 1, 2005. Because the act expressly preserves the right of all injured persons to recover full compensatory damages for their loss, it does not impair vested rights. In addition, because it enhances the ability of the most seriously ill to receive a prompt recovery, it is remedial in nature. Therefore, the act shall apply to any civil action asserting an asbestos claim in which trial has not commenced as of [July 1, 2005]."
