Miami-Dade County would pay Cabrera’s estate the remaining judgment

Miami-Dade County would pay $4,024,441.26 to Stephanie Cabrera as the person responsible for Oscar Cabrera’s estate. The payment covers damages from Oscar Cabrera’s death and matches the remaining judgment debt, including court costs. The county would have to use money that is not already committed. The payment requirement would take effect when the bill becomes law.

The award and the county’s earlier payment would be intended as the only compensation for claims arising from the events that caused Cabrera’s death. This covers all current and future claims against Miami-Dade County arising from those events. The provision limits compensation; it does not state that people cannot bring claims.

Lawyers’ fees for this claim could not exceed 25 percent of the amount awarded under the bill. The cap covers the total lawyers’ fees related to this claim.
