Re: Martin O'Boyle, et al. v Town of Gulf Stream
Case No: 2014CA011940XXXXMB AO
Dear Nick:
Attached please find an unredacted copy of the invoice number 10182 dated August 22,
2014 of Sweetapple, Broeker & Varkas, P.L. In producing this record to you now, the
Town in no way concedes that the information previously redacted from that invoice was
not property withheld as exempt pursuant to Fla. Stat. § 119.071(1)(d). The Town' s
production of this unredacted invoice shall in no way be deemed to waive the work
product privilege that continues to apply in this and other pending litigation.
Sincerely,
JONES, FOSTER, JOHNSTON & STUBBS, P.A.
