Mealey's (September 25, 2019, 12:14 PM EDT) -- MIAMI — A federal judge in Florida on Sept. 20 granted a federal flood insurer’s motion to dismiss an insured’s claims for attorney fees, consequential damages, prejudgment interest and court costs in a flood coverage dispute, rejecting as premature the insured’s contention that his court costs claim should proceed because “costs under federal law are generally awarded to the prevailing party” (Elias P. De La Torre III v. Wright National Flood Insurance Company, No. 19-10134, S.D. Fla., 2019 U.S. Dist. LEXIS 162209)....
