By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. June 2, 2026 Florida has sued OpenAI and Sam Altman over ChatGPT. The lawsuit is being sold as consumer protection, child protection, and public safety. But the deeper problem is not artificial intelligence. The deeper problem is what this lawsuit says about our legal culture. We are drifting very far…

By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. June 1, 2026 I. Introduction: The Question That Sounds Absurd Until You Think About It Are American citizens today actually more free than the medieval serfs depicted in Braveheart? At first, the question sounds ridiculous. Modern Americans can vote. They can travel. They can own property. They can sue and…

By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. June 1 , 2026 The billable hour is not one thing. It depends on where you sit in the legal marketplace. A solo commercial litigator, an insurance-defense firm, and an elite national law firm may all use the same basic unit — the hour — but they are not really…

By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. May 27, 2026 In Weber v. Weber, the Sixth District Court of Appeal reversed a trial court’s denial of attorney’s fees to a former wife who successfully defended against her former husband’s motion to enforce a marital settlement agreement. That is the immediate holding. But the more interesting part of…

By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. May 27, 2026 Florida appellate courts frequently affirm trial court orders without a written opinion. Lawyers call that a per curiam affirmance, or PCA.

That is the cartoon version of corruption: a referee in a smoky room, a promoter whispering in his ear, an envelope changing hands, and the preferred fighter being protected. The real…

A Trial Lawyer on Boxing: The Heavyweight Division Has Outgrown Itself By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. May 23, 2026 Frank Sanchez knocking out Richard Torrez Jr. should force boxing to confront a problem it has avoided for too long: the heavyweight division is no longer one division. It is an open-ended size category pretending to…

By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. Commercial contracts often contain limitation-of-liability language that parties treat as boilerplate. But in litigation, that “boilerplate” can become the most important language in the contract. The Fourth District Court of Appeal’s decision in Chetu, Inc. v. CA Short Company a/k/a Casco International, Inc., No. 4D2024-2977, is a useful reminder that…

By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. May 15, 2026 Boxing has always had a referee problem. Not in every fight. Not with every referee. But often enough that serious boxing fans know the pattern immediately. The referee stops watching the fight and starts managing it. He gets too close. He touches fighters. He breaks legal exchanges.…

By Jeffrey T. Donner, Esq. Florida’s medical-malpractice presuit system is usually defended in respectable-sounding language. We are told that Chapter 766 is designed to screen frivolous claims, reduce meritless litigation, encourage early settlement, and protect the stability of the medical and insurance markets. That sounds reasonable in the abstract. But the actual structure of the…
