It's now up to Gov. Ron DeSantis to decide whether to repeal a 35-year-old Florida law that bars adult children and their parents from recovering non-economic damages in wrongful death cases tied to medical negligence. The Senate voted 33-4 late last week to sign off on HB 6017. Senate Judiciary Chair Clay Yarborough, R-Jacksonville, sponsored the companion, SB 734. HB 6017 cleared the House, 104-6, in March.
