Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier has taken a firm stance in his role. He is willing to defy a federal judge's order, showing no hesitation in doing so.

The state's chief legal officer has expressed his commitment to his position, even going so far as to say he would be willing to face jail time.

Further details on this development can be found in the Galveston County Daily News, which reported on Uthmeier's actions as the chief state legal officer of Florida.
