Thank you very much to a reader for bringing my attention.
A dispute between the two homeowners in Florida has attracted the attention of the Attorney General of Florida, James Uthmeyer, who has now intervened and has taken legal action against a house owner.
According to reports, Jason McCormic was disturbed by his neighbors, Derryl and Kimelly wards, blowing several pro-plamps and anti-bidden flags on his assets starting in 2022.
Derryl and Kimberly look great for me.
But McCormic allegedly did not like it and made several unsuccessful attempts to stop them. When none of them do the work, they filed a case against them for two outbuilding near a lot of line compared to permission by their applicable covenants.
When the Attorney General Uthameyer stepped, filing a suit against McCormic claimed that McCormic used Lafe to retaliate against political speech and such tasks are wrong and illegal.

Detona Beach Journal More information was:
Florida’s Attorney General James Undhear is interfering in an ongoing Volusia County legal dispute, stating that he is standing for the free speech rights of the owners of two homes who posted Donald Trump political signs on their property.
In 2024, homeowner Jason McCormic sued, accusing his neighbors, deril and Kimelly ward, formed two outbuilding and built a lot of line close to a lot of line, which allows “without any sub -up -up -up -Hazen Road under the announcement of the covenant.” The parties live in Glenwood, which are in the north -east of Delland.
Nothing is mentioned in the original complaint about political signals. A test has been set in the McCormic-Word case for September 4 and 5.
But on 15 July, Uthmeier filed his suit against McCormic. The Attorney General says that McCormic objected to political signals – “Lats Go Brandon” – declared on the property of wards, starting with one in 2022.
Florida’s Attorney General James Uthameyer filed a case in defense of Derryl and Kimberly ward, the owners of the Glenwood Ghar said that a neighbor incorrectly used “Lawfare” in an attempt to suppress the free-skim rights of the owners of the house. In 2024, neighbor, Jason McCormic sued the wards, arguing that there are buildings in their house, close to a lot of lines under a neighborhood covenant.
During the election from 2022 to 2024, the wards posted signs of Donald Trump, and “McCormic continued to express their dissatisfaction with their political signals via texts and emails.”The Uthmeier’s trial states that the buildings on the property of the wards have been for years and implementing the coven was “vengeance and intervention with the practice of wards of their first amendment rights”. This further claims that McCormic works are “danger, threatening, or forced” against wards in the actions of McCormic.
From August 15, 2024, Undayer Case Quotes, email McCormic sent wards at the beginning of the original suit: “If you are interested in search of compromise or housing, we might consider new guidelines, such as exceptions and political signals, banners, and flags.
Bless the independent position of Lord Texas and it is a wonderful attorney general!
Thank you for standing for free speech!
It is wrong and illegal to use Lawfare to retaliate against political speech.
These homeowners must be free to support President Trump without any fear, and we will protect their right to do so. pic.twitter.com/alaovxg2z8

Tampa free press Attorney General states more about the pattern of forced by Uthameyer, which is prohibited under Section 760.51:
Attorney General Uthmeyer claims that McCormic is specially engaged in a pattern of threats, threatening and forced threats to suppress the political speech of the ward, especially the ward. This alleged pattern includes:
- If they do not remove their signals, the wards threatened to sue.
- To file a covenant suit case related to two buildings on the property of the wards, but only after refusing to take their political signals.
- “Weapons” restrictive covenant as a form of vengeance against protected speech.
- To exclude wards due to their political expression, while allegedly ignoring the same covenant issues with other neighbors.
The lawsuit seeks relief under Section 760.51, Florida law, which clearly prohibit threats, threats, or force that violates constitutional rights. The Attorney General’s office confirmed its commitment to using all available equipment under the Florida Act to protect these fundamental rights for all citizens.
