A recent ruling by the Florida Supreme Court clarified that attorney-fees clauses do not automatically apply to future property owners. The case originated with an easement agreement involving Crown Castle South LLC and RJ's International Trading LLC. Although RJ's secured damages for trespass, it sought attorney fees based on the original agreement. The court determined that the legal-fees clause lacked connection to the use or enjoyment of the land.
