Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Text Block] | Note 16. Commitments and Contingencies Litigation On June 22, 2021, Thomas Seifert’s employment as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer was terminated for cause. Mr. Seifert asserts that the termination was not for cause and that he is owed compensation payable under his June 2, 2021 employment agreement. The Company’s position is that Mr. Seifert is not owed any additional compensation relating to his prior service with the Company or arising under any employment agreement. The Company and Mr. Seifert are currently engaged in litigation over the matter of his employment and termination. The Company believes it has adequate defenses to Mr. Seifert’s claims and has asserted affirmative claims for relief against Mr. Seifert including, but not limited to, breach of the employment agreement, breach of his fiduciary duties, fraud in the inducement in connection with the employment agreement, fraudulent misrepresentation, and constructive fraud. A detailed recitation of the Company’s factual allegations supporting these claims can be found in the Company’s Second Amended Complaint, filed June 21, 2022. Subsequent to September 30, 2024, the Company settled with Mr. Seifert on October 15, 2024. Under the terms of the settlement, the Company agreed to pay to Mr. Seifert $150,000 and to reimburse him for legal costs in the amount of $600,000. In exchange, the Company and Mr. Seifert each agreed to dismiss the lawsuit with prejudice and to release the other party from all claims. On June 17, 2024, Progressive Care was notified of a potential claim by a former employee who allegedly suffered a loss due to an alleged breach by Progressive Care of such former employee's employment contract. Management believes, based on discussions with its legal counsel, that Progressive Care has meritorious defenses against the former employee’s claim. Since receipt of the notice of the claim, Progressive Care filed a petition for arbitration against the former employee, asserting that it was the employee who breached the employment contract. Progressive Care will prosecute its claims and will defend any counterclaims vigorously as Progressive Care believes it will prevail on the merits. At this time, we cannot reasonably estimate the amount of the loss. From time to time, the Company may become involved in litigation relating to claims arising out of our operations in the normal course of business. The Company is not currently involved in any pending legal proceeding or litigation, and, to the best of our knowledge, no governmental authority is contemplating any proceeding to which the Company is a party or to which any of the Company’s properties is subject, which would reasonably be likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and operating results.
