Florida House Speaker Dean Cannon says he wants to give the Judicial Qualifications Commission a chance to deal with judges at the 1st District Court of Appeal before considering an impeachment request.
Rep. Franklin Sands, D-Plantation, asked the speaker to appoint a committee to consider the impeachment of Judges Paul M. Hawkes and Brad Thomas for the roles they played in the construction of a $50 million courthouse many have dubbed the “Taj Mahal.”
