Real-life ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ now showing at Florida court

The legal version of ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ is being played out in a Florida court case involving a Bahamas studio where scenes from two movies of the same name were shot.
Among the cast of characters is a Bermuda Stock Exchange-listed company, a British Virgin Islands shell company that operates as an “underwriting” vehicle; a dubious Nevis-based insurer that is facing liquidation in a separate, unrelated action; and a Florida attorney who is currently suspended from practicing law for allegedly misappropriating client funds.
