Thank you for this. It validates my opinion that we need to elect Jose Javier Rodriguez to be AG to actually take the office back to its intention of serving the public not the powerful.

Great reporting as always!

I think the better question though, might be what laws has our unelected AG NOT broken? Or...... does our unelected AG even have the slightest understanding of what a law is, or how they're intended to be enforced?

Whatever law school issued him his law degree, I hope they're real proud of the giant stain on their reputation that is this current Attorney General. Of course, Harvard gave Desantis his law degree, so they deserve to be shamed for that embarrassment as well....

And the University of Florida is paying Uthmeier $100,000 for an adjunct professor job!

For attorneys, words are precise tools that directly impact case outcomes, persuasion, and reputation. Words matter. “On the written requisition …” is very explicit.

Another great story Mr. Garcia, thank you.

The linked stories about cancelled judicial elections are far more important.

“I requested, and I am now giving, an official opinion…” is a bathetic echo of Louis XIV of France who said, in translation, "I am the state."

If you weren't previously in a bad odour with the AG, you are now.

(I am also reminded of how Trump claimed that he mentally "declassified" the boxes of state documents he purloined on leaving office in 2021.)

"Curiouser and curiouser!” Cried Alice (she was so much surprised, that for the moment she quite forgot how to speak good English).
