Opinion filed October 21, 2016
Appeal from the Circuit Court
for Hernando County,
Richard Tombrink, Jr., Judge.
Timothy W. Weber, and Joseph P. Kenny,
of Weber, Crabb & Wein, P.A., St.
Petersburg, for Appellants.
Scot E. Samis and Ashley R. Kellgren, of
Traub, Lieberman Straus & Shrewsberry,
LLP, St. Petersburg, for Appellee.
PER CURIAM.
Marcial and Martina Garcia appeal the trial court's final judgment in favor of Tower Hill Signature Insurance Company, which, despite initially denying the Garcias' sinkhole claim, ultimately extended coverage after the Garcias filed suit and a neutral evaluator confirmed the sinkhole damage. In finding that Tower Hill’s initial denial of coverage did *2 not breach the Garcias’ insurance policy, the trial court correc tly applied then-binding precedent recently disapproved by the Florida Supreme Court in Johnson v. Omega Ins. Co., 41 Fla. L. Weekly S415 (Fla. Sept. 29, 2016). As such, we reverse the final judgment and remand for further proceedings consistent with Johnson.
REVERSED and REMANDED with INSTRUCTIONS.
LAWSON, C.J., TORPY and WALLIS, JJ., concur.
