Florida Sheriffs Association Support DeSantis In Warren Fight

The Florida Sheriffs Association plans to file a brief at the state Supreme Court to support Gov. Ron DeSantis in a battle about the suspension of Hillsborough County State Attorney Andrew Warren.

The Supreme Court on Wednesday approved a motion by the sheriffs association to file a friend-of-the-court brief in the case.

Warren last month asked the Supreme Court to order DeSantis to reinstate him, arguing the governor exceeded his power with the suspension. But in the motion to file the brief, the sheriffs association echoed DeSantis’ allegations that Warren had neglected his duty.
