GERALD T. STASHAK, M.D., P.A., Appellant, v. SECURITY NATIONAL INSURANCE COMPANY, Appellee. Circuit Court, 15th Judicial Circuit (Appellate) in and for Palm Beach County, Civil Division AY. Case No. 50-2020-AP-000020-CAXX-MB. L.T. Case No. 50-2012-SC-023358-XXXX-SB. July 13, 2020. Counsel: Chad A. Barr, Chad Barr Law, Altamonte Springs, for Appellant. Anthony J. Parrino, Saint Petersburg, for Appellee.
BY ORDER OF THE COURT:
(JAMES L. MARTZ, J.) THIS CAUSE came before the Court on Appellee’s Opposed Motion to Stay Case, filed on June 12, 2020, and Appellant’s Opposition to Appellee’s Motion to Stay the Case, filed June 19, 2020. Appellee requests a stay pending the Florida Supreme Court’s decision in SC18-1390, stating that while the case would not necessarily be dispositive because the policies at issue are distinguishable, the decision in SC18-1390 may provide clarification. Appellant filed opposition to the Motion stating that the stay is unnecessary because the policies are distinct and the a stay would cause needless delay. Accordingly, it is
ORDERED that Appellee’s Opposed Motion to Stay Case is DENIED. Appellant shall serve and file the Initial Brief on or before fifty (50) days of rendition of this Order.
