concurring specially.
I concur but write to echo the First District Court’s call for the Florida Supreme Court to consider whether rule 1.442 should be amended to align with the legislative intent that offers of judgments (also labeled by rule 1.442 as proposals for settlements) are meant to encourage settlements. Lamb constrains this goal when proposals for settlement are made to offer-ees whose claims are one and the same. See Heymann v. Free, 913 So.2d 11 (Fla. 1st DCA 2005).
