Interesting question is if the owners of the condo units are individually liable for damage and death caused by the collapse. They own the building and property, even if they relied on the association to manage it, and they made the decision to repair or not. I don’t know what FL law says. In CA there is a statute about this.

Potentially, the owners have not only suffered a total loss of the value of their unit whether collapsed or not, but also face a large personal liability.
