House or boat? Supreme Court rejects floating home appeal

In this April 22, 2014 photo, Fane Lozman poses for photos holding his dog and in front of his home floating in the waters near North Bay Village, Fla. He caught legal lightning in a bottle last year when the U.S. Supreme Court agreed with him that his floating home was a house, not a vessel covered by maritime law. But the justices haven’t had the last word: Lozman is still fighting for compensation for the home, which was destroyed years ago. The Fort Lauderdale-based federal judge whose decision on the floating home was overturned, U.S. District Judge William Dimitrouleas, refused earlier this year to give Lozman any of the $25,000 bond posted by the city of Riviera Beach to pay for Lozman’s home in case he won.
