 On May 29, 2015, Fuller sent President Barack Obama a letter of resignation effective August 1, 2015.In September 2015, a committee of federal judges who investigated Fuller told Congress it should consider impeaching Fuller despite his resignation, citing as justification its determination that Fuller had engaged in "reprehensible conduct" as there was "substantial evidence" that Fuller had physically abused his wife "at least eight times" and that Fuller "was also accused of committing perjury" when denying abusing his wife.In addition, the report concluded Fuller made "false statements to the chief judge of the 11th Circuit in late December 2010 in a way that caused a massive disruption in the District Courts' operation and loss of public confidence in the court as an instrument of Justice."
