234STATEMENT OF THE ISSUE

238The issue to be determined is whether Petitioners, William

247Guererro and Christina Bang, a/k/a Christina Guerrero , are

255entitled to attorneyÓs fees pursuant to section 57.105, Florida

264Statutes , from Respondents, Bernard Spinrad and Marien Spinrad ,

272related to litigation between the parties in DOAH Case No. 13 -

2842254 .

286PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

288On February 20, 2013 , the D epartment of Environmental

297Protection (D EP ) issued its proposed agency action with regard

308to DEP File No. 44 - 0290794 - 001 , which authorized certain

320activities to be conducted on property owned by the Guerreros .

331On or about March 5, 2013, the Spinrads timely filed their

342Petition for Administrative Hearing . The D EP dismissed the

352Petition on April 26, 2013, with leave to amend. The Spinrads

363filed an Amended Petition for Formal Administrative Hearing on

372Ma y 13, 2013 . That Amended Petition was referred to the

384Division of Administrative Hearings on June 14, 2013 , and was

394assigned to the undersigned for disposition as DOAH Case No. 13 -

4062254 .

408As set forth in the Recommended Order issued in DOAH Case

419No. 13 - 2254, t he regulatory history preceding the issuance of

431the DEPÓs proposed agency act ion was lengthy and complex , and

442included a previous DEP notice of proposed agency action denying

452the very activities that were the subject of DOAH Case No. 13 -

4652254 . A thorough recitation of the history of the cases related

477to DOAH Case No. 13 - 2254 was pr ovided in the July 23, 2013,

492Order Denying RespondentÓs Motions to Dismiss and Motion for

501AttorneyÓs Fees and Costs, which may be found at

510https://www.doah.state.fl.us/DocDoc/2013/002254/13002254OGEN -

512072313 - 14385438.pdf , and which is hereby adopted in thi s Final

524Order.

525T he final hearing in DOAH Case No. 13 - 2254 was initially

538scheduled to be held on August 26 and 28 , 2013. The hearing was

551continued several times for good cause , and was finally

560sc heduled for four days, November 18 - 21, 2013, in Marathon,

572Florida , and commenced as scheduled .

578On November 18, 2013, the Guerreros filed a ÐMotion for

588AttorneyÓs Fees and CostsÑ against the Spinrads under the

597authority of section 120.595 and section 120.569(2)(e). Ruling

605on that motion was reserved. The Guerrer os did not request

616attorneyÓs fees pursuant to section 57.105 at that time .

626The final hearing was not completed within the time

635allotted, and was thereafter scheduled to reconvene for an

644additional five days commencing on January 6, 2014.

652On December 12 , 2013, the Guerreros filed a Notice of

662Filing Proposed Changes to the Pending Agency Action , by which

672the y agreed to several additional permit conditions to support

682the issuance of the permit , and proposed conforming

690modifications to the ÐBackground FactsÑ of the proposed agency

699action.

700The conclusion of the final hearing was continued at the

710behest of the undersigned, re scheduled for March 31 through

720April 4, 2014 , and was com pleted as sch eduled.

730On April 10, 2014, after the completion of the final

740hearing, the Guerreros filed an ÐAmended Motion for Sanctions,

749AttorneyÓs Fees, and Costs and Request to Retain Jurisdiction to

759Determine Amount of Sanctions, AttorneyÓs Fees and Costs.Ñ The

768motion reasserted the relief sought under t he authority of

778section 120.595 and section 120.569(2)(e) . With regard to

787entitlement to attorneyÓs fees pursuant to section 57.105 , the

796Amended Motion provided that the Guerreros intended to serve the

806Spinrads with a motion which would then be filed with the

817undersigned 21 days thereafter .

822On May 2, 2014, Applicants filed a ÐMotion for Sanctions,

832AttorneyÓs Fees, Costs, and Damages a gainst Petitioners,

840Spinrads, pursuant to Section 57.105(5), Florida Statutes. Ñ The

849May 2, 2014 , Motion included an exhibit demonstrating that the

859Motion had been served on the Spinrads on April 10, 2014.

870On July 25, 2014, t he Recommended Order was entered in DOAH

882Case No. 13 - 2254. In the Recommended Order, the undersigned

893made f indings of fact and conclusions of law as to the

905GuerrerosÓ entitlement to relief under section 120. 569(2)(e) and

914section 120.595.

916As to section 120.569(2)(e), which is not a prevailing

925party statute, the undersigned determined, b ased upon a full

935review and consideration of the record , and applying an

944objective standard based on reasonable inquiry regarding

951pertinent facts and applicable law, that no pleading, motion, or

961other paper filed by the Spinrads was interposed for any

971improper purpose .

974As to se ction 120.5 95 , which is a prevailing party statute,

986the undersigned made findings of fact , b ased upon a full review

998and consideration of the record, that the Spinrads did not

1008participate in the proceeding for any improper purpose. In

1017accordance with the p rocedure established in section

1025120.595(1)(d), the undersigned design ated that determination in

1033the Recommended O rder.

1037The undersigned, having made the findings of fact and

1046conclusions of law necessary under sections 120.569(2)(e) and

1054120.595, did not reserve jurisdiction to make further findings

1063of fact or conclusions of law as to the Guerreros Ó entitlement

1075to attorneyÓs fees and other relief under those section s .

1086On September 8, 2014, the D EP entered its Consolidated

1096Final Order, which adopted the Recommended Order as the

1105DepartmentÓs final agency action, with several changes not

1113pertinent here.

1115On or about September 29, 2014, the Guerreros filed a

1125notice of appeal of the Consolidated Final Order in the First

1136District Court of Appeal, assigned as case number 1D14 - 4496 , in

1148which the Guerreros described the nature of the order being

1158appealed as:

1160a F inal Order following an administrative

1167final hearing of the Division of

1173Administrative Hearings before

1176A dministrative Law Judge ("ALJ") E. Gary

1185Early entered in favor of the Respondent's

1192William Guerrero and Christina Bang, aka

1198Christina Guerrero ("Guerrer os"), wher ein

1206the ALJ denied the Guerrero Ós request for

1214attorney fees, costs and sanctions under

1220sections 120.569(2)(e) and 120.595, Fla.

1225Stat.

1226Based on the foregoing, the undersigned declines to make

1235further findings of fact or conclusions of law as to whether the

1247Spinrads filed any pleading, motion, or other paper for any

1257improper purpose , or participated in DOAH Case No. 13 - 2254 for

1269an improper purpose . T hose findings of fact and conclusions of

1281law set forth in the Recommended Order and adopted in the

1292C onsolidated Final Order stand as the determination of the

1302Guerreros Ó lack of entitlement to relief under those sections.

1312On October 8, 2014, the Guerreros filed the Ð Request for

1323Evidentiary Hearing, and Entry of a Fi nal Order, pursuant to its

1335[sic ] Amen ded Motion for Sanctions, Attorneys' Fees, Costs, and

1346Damages, Against Petitioners, Bernard Spinrad and Mari e n

1355Spinrad, pursuant to Sections 120.595(1), 120.569(2)(e), and

136257.105(5), Florida Statutes . Ñ The Spinrads filed a response.

1372On October 17, 2014, the undersigned entered an o rder to

1383show cause why the r equest for sanctions, fees, and other relief

1395pursuant to sections 120.595(1) and 120.569(2)(e), Florida

1402Statutes, should not be dismissed on the basis that the motions

1413for relief under those sections were ruled upon and denied in

1424the Recommended Order without any reservation of jurisdiction

1432for further action by the undersigned , and why the undersigned

1442should not enter a final order as to the request for attorneyÓs

1454fees under section 57.105 consistent with the findings of fact

1464and conclusions of law set forth in the Recommended Order . The

1476Guerreros filed a response , which has been reviewed and

1485considered by the undersigned.

1489FINDINGS OF FACT

14921. T he Recommended Order in DOAH Case No. 13 - 2254,

1504including the Preliminary Statement , t he Findings of Fact , and

1514the Conclusions of Law contained therein , and the Department of

1524Environmental ProtectionÓs Consolidated Final Order in OGC Case

1532No. 13 - 0858 are incorporated herein by reference as the facts

1544un derlying this Final Order .

1550CONCLUSIONS OF LAW

15532 . Section 57.105 provides, in pertinent part, that:

1562(1) Upon the courtÓs initiative or motion

1569of any party, the court shall award a

1577reasonable attorneyÓs fee, . . . on any

1585claim or defense at any time during a civil

1594proceeding or action in which the court

1601finds that the losing party or the losing

1609partyÓs attorney knew or should have known

1616that a claim or defense when initially

1623presented to the court or at any time

1631before trial:

1633(a) Was not supported b y the material

1641facts necessary to establish the claim or

1648defense; or

1650(b) Would not be supported by the

1657application of then - existing law to those

1665material facts.

1667(2) At any time in any civil proceeding or

1676action in which the moving party proves by

1684a pre ponderance of the evidence that any

1692action taken by the opposing party, . . .

1701was taken primarily for the purpose of

1708unreasonable delay, the court shall award

1714damages to the moving party for its

1721reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining

1726the order, which m ay include attorneyÓs

1733fees, and other loss resulting from the

1740improper delay.

1742* * *

1745(4) A motion by a party seeking sanctions

1753under this section must be served but may

1761not be filed with or presented to the court

1770unless, within 21 days after service of the

1778motion, the challenged paper, claim,

1783defense, contention, allegation, or denial

1788is not withdrawn or appropriately

1793corrected.

1794(5) In administrative proceedings under

1799chapter 120, an administrative law judge

1805shall award a reasonable attorneyÓs fee and

1812damages to be paid to the prevailing party

1820in equal amounts by the losing party and a

1829losing partyÓs attorney or qualified

1834representative in the same manner and upon

1841the same basis as provided in subsections

1848(1) - (4). Such award shall be a final order

1858subj ect to judicial review pursuant to

1865s. 120.68 . . . .

18713 . In addition to the foregoing, Ðsection 57.105 does not

1882require a finding of frivolousness to justify sanctions, but

1891only a finding that the claim lacked a basis in material facts

1903or then - existing l aw.Ñ Martin Cnty. Conser. Alliance v. Martin

1915Cnty. , 73 So. 3d 856, 858 (Fla. 1st DCA 2011); see also Gopman

1928v. DepÓt of Educ. , 974 So. 2d 1208, 1210 (Fla. 1st DCA 2008).

19414 . The First District Court of Appeal has established

1951that:

1952[S]ection 57.105 must be applied carefully

1958to ensure that it serves the purpose for

1966which it was intended, which was to deter

1974frivolous pleadings.

1976In determining whether a party is entitled

1983to statutory attorney's fees under section

198957.105, Florida Statutes, frivolousness is

1994determined when the claim or defense was

2001initially filed; if the claim or defense is

2009not initially frivolous, the court must

2015then determine whether the claim or defense

2022became frivolous after the suit was filed.

2029In so doing, the court determines if the

2037p arty or its counsel knew or should have

2046known that the claim or defense asserted

2053was not supported by the facts or an

2061application of existing law. An award of

2068fees is not always appropriate under

2074section 57.105, even when the party seeking

2081fees was succes sful in obtaining the

2088dismissal of the action or summary judgment

2095in an action. (internal citations omitted).

2101Wendy's v. Vandergriff , 865 So. 2d 520, 523 (Fla. 1st DCA 2003) .

21145 . The standard under section 57.105 is to be applied on a

2127case - by - case basis. In that regard:

2136While the revised statute incorporates the

2142Ð not supported by the material facts or

2150would not be supported by application of

2157then - existing law to those material facts Ñ

2166standard instead of the Ð frivolous Ñ

2173standard of the earlier statute, an all

2180encompassing definition of the new standard

2186defies us. It is clear that the bar for

2195imposition of sanctions has been lowered,

2201but just how far it has been lowered is an

2211open question requiring a case by case

2218analysis.

2219Wendy's v. Vandergriff , 865 So. 2d at 524 (citing Mullins v.

2230Kennelly , 847 So. 2d at 1155, n.4. (Fla. 5th DCA 2003)).

22416 . The term Ðsupported by the material factsÑ in section

225257.105(1)(a), means that the Ðparty possesses admissible

2259evidence sufficient to establish the fact if accepted by the

2269finder of fact.Ñ Albritton v. Ferrera , 913 So. 2d 5, 7, n.1

2281(Fla. 1st DCA 2005).

22857 . In conducting this evaluation, it must be determined if

2296the party or its counsel knew or should have known that the

2308claim or defense asserted was not supported by the material

2318facts necessary to establish the claim or defense or by the

2329application of t hen - existing law to the material facts. Read v.

2342Taylor , 832 So. 2d 219 (Fla. 4th DCA 2002). Ð An award of fees

2356is not always appropriate under section 57.105, even when the

2366party seeking fees was successful in obtaining the dismissal of

2376the action or summ ary judgment in an action. Ñ Id. at 222; see

2390also Mason v. Highlands Cnty. Bd. of Cnty. Comm'rs , 817 So. 2d

2402922, 923 (Fla. 2d DCA 2002)("Failing to state a cause of action

2415is not in and of itself a sufficient basis to support a finding

2428that a claim was so lacking in merit as to justify an award of

2442fees pursuant to section 57.105."); Pappalardo v. Richfield

2451Hospitality Servs., Inc. , 790 So. 2d 1226, 1228 (Fla. 4th DCA

24622001)("Whether fees should have been awarded in this case

2472depends upon whether the underlying cause of action, which was

2482dismissed by the trial court, was so clearly and obviously

2492lacking as to be untenable.").

24988 . In their Motion, the Guerreros state that:

2507Spinrads have brought repetitive litigation

2512against the Guerreros on the same issues

2519r elated to the pending agency action before

2527the ALJ in the Division of Administrative

2534Hearings proceedings and a Circuit Court

2540case. Spinrads have never demonstrated a

2546basis for their vacuous factual allegations

2552and legal argument.

2555To the contrary , the facts and law alleged by the Spinrads were

2567not only worthy of serious consideration of their own accord,

2577but at one time were sufficient to cause the DEP to deny the

2590very same permits, exemptions, and state lands authorization s

2599that were the subject of DOAH Case No. 13 - 2254, a denial

2612reversed only after lengthy negotiations between the DEP and the

2622Guerreros to which the Spinrads, though parties to the denial

2632proceeding, were not made privy. Based on the DEPÓs

2641contradictory positions as to the legality of the Guerreros Ó

2651proposed structures, it was hardly unreasonable or unwarranted

2659for the Spinrads to challenge the DEPÓs reversal of its position

2670from denial to issuance .

26759 . Based upon a full review and consideration of the

2686record in DOAH Case No. 13 - 2254 , the undersigned concludes that ,

2698although the Recommended Order in that case was favorable to the

2709Guerreros, the material facts relied upon by the Spinrads and

2719the application of then - existing law to those material facts by

2731the Spinrads were no t so lacking in merit as to warrant an award

2745of attorneyÓs fees or costs under section 57.105, Florida

2754Statutes.

275510. Based upon a full review and consideration of the

2765record in DOAH Case No. 13 - 2254 , including the bases of the

2778numerous discovery , evidentiary , and procedural disputes raised

2785-- by all of the parties -- and resolved through out the course

2798of the proceeding, the u ndersigned concludes that no action

2808taken by the Spinrads in that case was primarily for the purpose

2820of unreasonable delay .

28241 1 . Based on the findings of fact and legal authority set

2837forth herein, the Guerreros Ó May 2, 2014, Ð Motion for Sanctions,

2849AttorneyÓs Fees, Costs, and Damages against Petitioners,

2856Spinrads, pursuant to Section 57.105(5), Florida Statutes Ñ is

2865DENIED.
