Legal Question in Credit and Debt Law in Florida

my reading of florida law says a person can have '1 payday loan at a time'. a friend of mine has more than that, and is spiraling downhill. does the law really mean '1 payday loan at a time', with a specific lender, or were the companies who loaned him the $$ on the other loans somehow breaking the law. thanks.
