SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico (AP) - A jury in the U.S. Virgin Islands has awarded Miami Dolphins defensive end Jason Taylor and two partners the return of a $1.5 million deposit from the botched sale of a private island.
The NFL star, who recently signed a $1.5 million, one-year contract to come back to the Dolphins, will be given his share of the deposit, plus expenses, after a jury determined that the seller breached a 2004 contract for the 158-acre island.
After five years of litigation, Taylor's attorney, Charles C. Papy, said Thursday he was "elated" by the jury's findings, which resolved the civil case.
