How long do we have to use the settlement money from a faulty roof lawsuit?

Florida

Hello, If you win a faulty roof lawsuit, how long do you have to make the repairs using the settlement money? Also, do you have to use it just for that specific purpose? Thank you

Great question because it calls out the importance of giving full attention to the details in the Order of Judgment. If a case and subsequent Judgment involves subrogation, insurance, specific performance remedies, or issues that might involve third parties then there could be additional post-judgment requirements that need attention and timely action. In any court case or arbitration, critical reading of the Judgment by an experienced construction attorney will help answer the specifics.
