This bill provides for the financial relief of the Estate of M.N. by the Broward County Sheriff's Office (BSO) due to negligence that resulted in M.N.'s injuries and subsequent death. The bill appropriates a total of $2,588,258.50 to be paid to the Estate of M.N. as compensation for the damages sustained. It also includes provisions to waive all government liens, including Medicaid liens, related to M.N.'s treatment and care, which are to be covered by the state. Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the total amount paid for attorney fees related to this claim cannot exceed 25 percent of the total awarded amount.

The bill acknowledges the findings of negligence by the BSO during the investigation of M.N.'s injuries, which ultimately led to her death. It emphasizes the BSO's failure to conduct a thorough investigation and to ensure M.N.'s safety, resulting in a jury awarding $4.5 million to M.N.'s father, Mr. Nevarez. The BSO has already made partial payments towards this judgment, but a significant amount remains unpaid, which this bill seeks to address. The act is intended to take effect immediately upon becoming law.
