under Florida’s “‘new’ summary judgment standard . . . the trial court should

only deny summary judgment where there is a genuine dispute as to a

‘material fact’ and ‘the evidence is such that a reasonable jury could return a

verdict for the nonmoving party.’”) (citing In re Amends. to Fla. Rule of Civ.

Proc. 1.510, 317 So. 3d 72, 75 (Fla. 2021)); Citizens Prop. Ins. Corp. v.

Zamanillo, 49 Fla. L. Weekly D192, 2024 WL 172611 (Fla. 3d DCA, Jan. 17,

2024) (holding final summary judgment was properly entered where there

was no triable issue of fact on the record).
