Fla. Jur. 2d Mortgages section 1 (1982). When two mortgage loans made by different borrowers are cross-collateralized, the Department treats each mortgage as securing not only its own primary obligation, but a contingent obligation of the owner of the mortgaged property guaranteeing the cross-collateralized obligation. Each mortgage is taxable on the aggregate of the obligations secured. If a mortgage contains a specific limitation on recovery, that mortgage cannot be subject to documentary stamp tax in excess of the limited amount, provided, a limitation cannot be used to circumvent or reduce documentary stamp tax on direct obligations secured by the mortgage which are executed in Florida.

Lessee, as authorized by statute, is self-insured, and maintains a self-insurance fund, for tort liability up to the maximum dollar amounts for which sovereign immunity has been waived by statute and maintains excess insurance coverage for such amounts as may be required by settlement agreement or imposed by legislative act.

Fla. L. Weekly D 2268 (Fla. Dist. Ct. App. Oct. 1, 2003).27 The husband and guardian of a nursing home resident filed a claim against Manor Care, the nursing home, for deprivation of the resident's rights as set forth in sections 400.022 and 400.023, Florida Statutes (2001). The Court refused to uphold arbitration agreement on substantive and procedural unconscionable. Regarding the first, whether the agreement was substantively unconscionable, the court found: “This arbitration agreement would not vindicate the resident's statutory rights in any respect. In fact, the agreement would specifically deprive the resident of remedies that the legislature felt were important to the reduction of elder abuse in nursing homes. While it was the intent of the remedial policies of the legislation to permit the award of punitive damages for certain conduct, the agreement prevented the arbiters from awarding such damages. Nor could the arbiters award attorney's fees to the successful resident even though the ability to make such an award was intended by the legislature. For instance, according to [**10] the allegations of the complaint, Xxxxxxxxx was only in the nursing home for thirty days but developed bed sores and received grossly substandard care. Given her advanced age, compensatory damages may be small. Under the arbitration agreement, in order to vindicate her rights, she would have to pay for an attorney herself, the cost of which may prevent her from pursuing a rightful claim. Because the arbitration agreement fails to allow the arbiter to award either attorney's fees or punitive damages, it does not permit the nursing home resident to vindicate her statutory rights. Therefore, the agreement is unenforceable. See Flyer Printing, 805 So. 2d at 831. Because of the limitations contained in the arbitration agreement, it takes away any effective enforcement of the statutory rights of the resident.” As to procedural unconscionability, it is true that the arbitration agreement was not 'hidden in the fine print.' It was presented to Xxxxxxxx as simply another document required to be signed as part of the admission process. Both Xxxxxxxx and his wife are elderly, and while Xxxxxxxx owned his own business, there was no showing that he had legal training to understand the rights he was signing away for his wife. Moreover, he was being asked to sign these documents after his wife was already admitted to the nursing home without being told that his failure to sign them would no...
