This document is a reply brief submitted by the petitioners, Richard Debrincat and Jason Debrincat, in the Supreme Court of Florida. The brief argues that the Debrincats' conduct is protected by the litigation privilege, which provides absolute immunity for acts occurring during judicial proceedings. The brief addresses arguments related to the tort of malicious prosecution and the litigation privilege, emphasizing that remedies for litigation misconduct should be sought within the original proceedings rather than through retaliatory lawsuits. The brief also discusses the burden of proof in malicious prosecution cases and compares Florida's approach to other jurisdictions, particularly California.
