However, Florida\u2019s First District Court of Appeal recently held that if the defendant\u2019s insurance company has private investigators take videos on separate occasions but only intends to use one of the videos at trial, the other videos do not have to be produced.We don\u2019t like the decision to allow a defendant to keep some videos private. Information like that shouldn\u2019t be kept secret because it could be misleading.Personal injury attorneys\u00a0need to be up to date on all the rules regarding what is discoverable and what is not.Zimmet & ZimmetCar accident lawyers serving Daytona Beach, Port Orange, Ormond Beach and Deltona areasPersonal Attention and the Time to Get It RightHave you been injured in an accident or fall?
