1Opinion of the CourtQuince, J.

This case is before the Court for review of two questions of Florida law certified by the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit that are determinative of a cause pending in that court and for which there appears to be no controlling precedent. We have jurisdiction. See art. V, § 3(b)(6), Fla. Const. For the reasons that follow, we hold that the insured in this ease can use the payments to it from a third party to satisfy the self-insured retention provision.
