Deauville Hotel Management, LLC v. Atlantic Broadband (Miami), LLC

Deauville Hotel Management, defendant below, appeals an adverse final judgment for damages (and an order denying a later motion by Deauville to vacate that judgment) entered after the trial court struck Deauville’s pleadings for extensive discovery misconduct and violations of court orders. The final judgment included two elements: $200,000 plus prejudgment interest for a “one-time flat fee payment” allegedly made by Atlantic Broadband to Deauville, and $2,269,717 in lost profits allegedly caused by Deauville’s breach of a cable services agreement.
