NME PROPERTIES, INC. v. RUDICH

No. 4D00-4490.

840 So.2d 309 (2003)

NME PROPERTIES, INC., Appellant, v. Florence RUDICH, as Personal Representative of the Estate of Ida Revitz, deceased, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

Rehearing Denied April 9, 2003.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Susan M. Seigle of Ruden, McClosky, Smith, Schuster & Russell, P.A., West Palm Beach, for appellant.

Philip M. Burlington of Caruso, Burlington, Bohn & Compiani, P.A., West Palm Beach, and Dan Cytryn of the Law Offices of Dan Cytryn, P.A., Tamarac, for appellee.

SHAHOOD, J.

We affirm the punitive damage award against NME Properties, Inc., d/b/a Menorah House, following the death of Ida Revitz, a Menorah House resident, based on vicarious liability. Likewise, we also affirm all other issues raised on appeal and cross-appeal, but write to address the nondelegable duty of a nursing home licensee to provide adequate care to its residents, even though the nursing home was operated by an independent contractor.
