Transcript:

Summary:

Mr. Sebo’s home sustained serious water damage in the months before and immediately after Hurricane Wilma in 2005. The damage was caused by problems in construction and heavy rains and wind. The trial court awarded him $8 million under his all - risks policy with American Home. The Second District Court of Appeal reversed that decision, ruling a different legal doctrine should be used to assess liability in a case where there is more than one cause for the damage.
