Michael Washington v. Florida Department of Transportation
Whether the reasoning in Olano applies in a civil context where the failure of a party's counsel to object to closing argument due to misconduct or negligence is an "intentional relinquishment or abandonment of a known right" by the party himself that affirmatively waives the fundamental right to a new trial, or is instead a forfeiture, which does not wholly foreclose appellate review by the State's highest court?
