              ON REMAND FROM THE FLORIDA SUPREME COURT

PER CURIAM.

      This matter is before us on remand from the Florida Supreme Court following

its decision in Soffer v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, 187 So. 3d 1219 (Fla.

2016). In compliance with the Florida Supreme Court’s directive, we remand this

case for further proceedings on the issue of whether punitive damages should be

imposed for Appellee/Cross-Appellant’s negligence and strict liability claims and,

if so, the amount thereof.

      REVERSED and REMANDED with instructions.



LEWIS, WETHERELL, and MAKAR, JJ., CONCUR.
