Mark Fuller attorney mum on client's future as 4 more Congressmen call for judge's resignation [View all]
Source: Al.com
The attorney for an Alabama federal judge involved in a domestic violence case isn't saying if his client will resign, even as calls for him to step down increase.
Attorney Barry Ragsdale declined comment to AL.com Thursday on the future of U.S. District Judge Mark Fuller, who was arrested Aug. 9 on domestic violence charges involving his wife. Ragsdale told the AP Fuller is working through the complaint process initiated by the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals following his arrest, a process that could end in a reprimand or a court request for his resignation.
The case has drawn national attention and comparisons to football star Ray Rice's recent arrest on domestic violence charges.
Meanwhile, three more members of the Alabama Congressional delegation are calling for Fuller's resignation.
Reps. Robert Aderholt, Mo Brooks, Spencer Bachus and Bradley Byrne said Fuller should resign immediately. Their comments come as Sens. Richard Shelby and Jeff Sessions, as well as Reps. Martha Roby, R-Montgomery, and Terri Sewell, D-Birmingham, said the 55-year-old judge should step down from the bench.
