I rather doubt that there is one generally accepted definition of “elder law.” Therefore, for the purposes of these comments, I will use the following: Interpretations of federal and Florida constitutional provisions in such a way as to bear on the concerns of people who may be described as elderly, even though those constitutional provisions make no direct reference to the elderly.
In the Federal Constitution, I identified and will discuss the following instances that I believe meet the definition above. It is not my intention that the list necessarily be in order of importance.
