ANALYSIS Bermudez asserts that the Tribe, although not a party to the tort lawsuit when the case was tried and the first judgment entered, may be added as a party and held liable to pay the damages awarded against Billie and Bert because the Tribe funded and guided Billie and Bert’s defense. Bermudez relies upon three lines of authority in making this argument. The first line of authority relied upon by Bermudez involves issue preclusion. Ber-mudez notes that several cases from outside Florida have held that a person who funded and guided litigation, although not a party, may be estopped from attempting to re-litigate the issues decided in the litigation.
