Kramer v. State Farm Florida Insurance Co.

District Court of Appeal of Florida

Decided July 18, 2012No. 4D10-3978PublishedCited by 23 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtGerber, J.

The insureds appeal the circuit court’s final summary judgment in favor of the insurer. The insureds primarily argue that their untimely pre-suit notice of the alleged loss and untimely pre-suit submission of a sworn proof of loss did not preclude them from recovery under the policy. We disagree. We conclude that the in*304sureds’ untimely pre-suit notice of the alleged loss and untimely pre-suit submission of a sworn proof of loss created a presumption of prejudice to the insurer, which the insureds failed to rebut, thereby precluding the insureds from recovery under the policy. Thus, we affirm.
