Jon May, joined by Johnny Bardine and supported by legal experts, plans to file a new complaint after Bondi’s dismissal as U.S. Attorney General, citing violations of Florida Bar rules.
The complaint alleges Bondi’s actions harmed Stetson Law School’s reputation and devalued its degrees, prompting calls to revoke her honors and urging alumni to withhold donations until action is taken.
The renewed scrutiny tests whether the Florida Bar will hold influential attorneys accountable and maintain public trust in legal ethics, especially as Bondi remains a prominent figure in the Tampa Bay area.
