We reverse and remand consistent with our decision in United
Automobile Insurance Co. v. Millennium Radiology, LLC, 337 So. 3d 834,
837 (Fla. 3d DCA 2022) (“Millennium’s ‘identity’ is not the same in each of
these cases against United Auto; Millennium draws its identity from its
assignor from case to case. The identity element of collateral estoppel,
therefore, is not satisfied.”).
Reversed and remanded.
