Double The Legal Limit

The Florida Supreme Court has ordered that a circuit court judge be publicly reprimanded for a conviction for driving under the influence of alcohol.

The breath test results were double the legal limit.

The court called the conduct “reprehensible.”

In Florida, a public censure requires the judge to appear in court to be reprimanded. The published opinion is  not sufficient. (Mike Frisch)
