That will certainly be the angle they're going to go for, but it won't change anything. Here's how the law works.


Federal law takes precedence where and when there is a state law that violates a Federal law. In order for this to go to court, Disney Corporation would have to show injury. Injury has not yet happened because the transition doesn't take place until June of 2023. This means that Disney has the full opportunity to reapply for special status under the NEW law by that point.

But there's more... Disney was not singled out. There were 5 other special districts which were eliminated, and they all also must re-apply under the new state law. The law sought to eliminate those 6 districts because they existed prior to the passage of the Florida constitution.

Here's the main point...


The Federal government cannot force a state to do something that would be unconstitutional to State laws, where there is no existing precedence in Federal law. To put this mildly, Disney has no recourse. The Federal government has no law established that states what a special district is and how states should manage it. That is entirely up to the state. The court could eventually rule that Florida acted inappropriately and issue a stay order, but as I said, the existing agreement violates Florida constitutional law. If it even made it to the Supreme Court, it would get overturned because there's nothing for the Federal government TO do.

Disney screwed up, and I would expect the CEO will likely get removed at some point, when all of this clears. This isn't the first time he's screwed up, he's been in constant missteps with the public, from the Scarlett Johanssen contract violation, to this, there have been several in the middle, and the board of directors are not pleased.

A lot of the Disney stock tanking has much to do with NetFlix affecting Disney+ valuation, but the majority of this is as a result of the CEO's failure.

His tenure is up in February of 2023, but many people are questioning whether or not he'll even make it by then and will likely get removed by the board of directors.
