You know an appellate decision is going to be good (or at least entertaining) when this is the first sentence in the written opinion: "In this case, we confront an existential question: is renting out a
barn for weddings the same thing as operating a farm?"

FSC Opinion - Hot Off the Press!

"A fair reading of the language added by the 2008 amendment understood in the full statutory context precludes interpreting the phrase “account made in the name of two persons who are husband and wife” to mean “account originally made in the name of two persons who are husband and wife.”

We hold that section 655.79, Florida Statutes, authorizes a joint spousal bank account to be held as a tenancy by the entireties even if the account was originally established by one spouse."
