Eleventh Circuit -- State Farm Mutual v. Anna N. Duckworth

State Farm Mutual v. Anna N. Duckworth 

Claimant's notification of insurance company that she had moved to Florida was insufficient notice of permanent change of address to meet Florida's requirement in the public policy exception in insurance choice of law cases that the resident notify the carrier of new permanent residence.  (This so the carrier can know the law under which the policy operates.)  SJ appropriate.
