The Florida Bar has rejected an ethics complaint against Department of Homeland Security (DHS) General Counsel James Percival. The complaint, filed by over 100 former judges, accused Percival of violating ethics rules by publicly ranking and criticizing federal judges who had ruled against the Trump administration's immigration policies on social media. The bar declined to investigate Percival, stating that it does not investigate or prosecute sitting federal officials while they are in office. The complaint is now closed and can be refiled once Percival no longer holds office.
