My job is to follow the law, not to make up the law that has been promulgated by the people or the people's representatives.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My job is to enforce the laws of Florida.
I have had to make a decision I may not agree with, but I am required to follow the letter of the law. It is not my job to think what is best... My responsibility is to decide what the law says and to decide to the law.
I'm a lawmaker, but I really don't like laws.
My job is to persuade people to toe the line and play within the laws of the game.
I'm duty-bound to follow the law and apply to the law to the facts as I find them.
Instead of taking a very high-paying type of law job or something that I might be able to do, I have been a legislator. That's what I do. I think it's an honorable profession - if you're honest and have integrity and work hard.
Do not have any doubt that I will apply the law over whoever is responsible for not complying with the law.
I want to do what I can to make the law make sense to citizens and businesses alike. I want the laws to assist them in worthwhile endeavors, not to stand as bureaucratic obstacles.
My job is to interpret the law based on how the legislature and the court has done it and then, of course, to use our system of justice to develop some new legal tools and new concepts.
My job is to enforce the law, without fear or favor.
