King still intends to appeal the legality of the traffic stop and search that led to his arrest.<ref>"Hugh King gets probation." ''Pensacola News Journal'', January 14, 2007.</ref>
As a result of King's plea, [[Community Maritime Park Associates]] Chairman [[Lacey Collier]] asked Board members to consider removing him "for conduct detrimental to the interests of the corporation," as allowed by the organization's bylaws.<ref>"Park board could oust King."
