⚖️ Judge gives OK to $1B deal in Florida condo collapse

On Saturday, a Florida judge gave the initial approval to a more than $1 billion settlement for families who lost loved ones in the collapse of a Florida beachfront condominium. The unprecedented collapse of the 12-story building in the early morning hours of June 24, 2021 took 98 lives. The quick settlement means that potentially years of court battles will be avoided.

The vast sum of money comes from several sources, including insurance companies, engineering companies and a luxury condominium that had recently been built next door. None of the parties are admitting wrongdoing. The National Institute of Standards and Technology is investigating the cause of the collapse, a process expected to take years.
