Coconut Creek is governed by a City Commission and run by a City Manager. Any settlements of lawsuits against the City of Coconut Creek must be approved by the City Commission. A lawsuit against the City is called a case of “sovereign immunity.” In fact, any case against any sort of governmental entity (whether it be the City, the County or the State – or any subdivisions of the above) is called a sovereign immunity case. A sovereign immunity case carries with it all sorts of restrictions. For example, typically the maximum recovery allowed in a case against a City, County or the State is $200,000. In the case of a catastrophic injury, a piece of legislation called a “Claims Bill” is required to be passed in Tallahassee in order to recover more than $200,000.
Additionally, there are time-limitations in sovereign immunity cases that don’t apply to other types of cases. As such, it’s especially important to contact Mr. Quackenbush as soon as possible if you’ve been injured by a city, county or the State. You can do this by calling Mr. Quackenbush at 954-448-7288.
