The Tampa Tribune reports Governor Charlie Crist has written a letter that states: "While it remains our hope to avoid litigation, I believe we must be prepared in the event legal action is needed . . . . Obviously, the goal of such action would be to restore the people, businesses, industries and communities of Florida harmed in the wake of the potentially disastrous and unprecedented damage of the oil spill." The Governor then announced the appointment of Steven Yerrid, a Tampa lawyer, as the Florida Oil Spill Attorney. He has experience with the Skyway Bridge disaster and has a reputation as a fighter for the people of Florida in the Tobacco litigation, Good Luck.
