This bill is designed to provide financial relief to L.P., a minor, for injuries and damages sustained due to the negligence of employees and caseworkers from the Department of Children and Families (DCF). The bill appropriates $28 million from the General Revenue Fund to a special needs trust for L.P., following a jury's finding of negligence against DCF after a tragic incident where L.P.'s mother attempted to murder her. The bill outlines that the facts stated in the preamble are true and directs the Chief Financial Officer to issue a warrant for the specified amount to the trust.

Additionally, the bill establishes that the compensation provided by DCF, in accordance with Florida Statutes, is intended to cover all present and future claims related to the injuries and damages suffered by L.P. It also sets a limitation on the total amount that can be paid for attorney fees and similar expenses, capping it at 25% of the total awarded amount. The act will take effect upon becoming law.
