AMENDED ARBITRATION AWARD
On June 1, 2007, an Arbitration Award was entered in this cause following the arbitration hearing conducted on May 30, 2007. On August 22, 2007, a Supplemental Arbitration Award was entered as to the amount of attorney's fees and costs to be paid to the Claimant's attorney, in accordance with an agreement reached by the parties.
On March 11, 2009, the Third District Court of Appeal issued its opinion setting aside a portion of the Arbitration Award. Pursuant to that Opinion and the Mandate issued
March 27, 2009, the arbitration hearing in this cause was re- convened on June 30, 2009, before Linda M. Rigot, Chief
Arbitrator; Richard P. Cole, Arbitrator; and Gary D. Fox, Arbitrator, in Miami, Florida.
APPEARANCES
For Claimant: Charles H. Baumberger, Esquire
Lincoln J. Connolly, Esquire Rossman, Baumberger & Reboso, P.A.
44 West Flagler Street, Suite 2300 Miami, Florida 33130-1808
For Defendant: Norman M. Waas, Esquire
Glenn P. Falk, Esquire

Two Alhambra Plaza Suite 750 Coral Gables, Florida 33134
The August 22, 2007, Supplemental Arbitration Award and the June 1, 2007, Arbitration Award are adopted and ratified in their entirety except that the award for loss of earning capacity is deleted and loss of support and loss of net accumulations are now included in the award. At the conclusion of the re-convened arbitration hearing, the amended award was announced on the record as follows:
Non-economic damages
Loss of services | $ 250,000 |
Past | 15,762 |
Future | 132,358 |
Loss of support | 394,766 |
Loss of net accumulations | 109,607 |
Total award $ 902,493
Since the Defendant has previously paid the amount of
$799,258 to the Claimant pursuant to the June 1, 2007, Arbitration Award although this cause was on appeal, the balance remaining to be paid to the Claimant pursuant to this Amended Arbitration Award is $103,235.
Defendant has agreed to pay the amount of $5,000 each to Arbitrators Cole and Fox as their arbitrator's fee for the re- convened hearing.
By agreement of the parties, Defendant shall also pay the amount of $5,000 toward Dr. Raffa's fee for his testimony at the re-convened hearing.
DONE AND ORDERED this 1st day of July, 2009, in Tallahassee, Leon County, Florida.
