Michael Gates quits Justice Department to again work in Huntington Beach.
SPENCER GRANT MICHAEL GATES said he was missing his family.
Michael Gates, who served Huntington Beach as its outspoken city attorney for more than a decade, is returning to City Hall.
Gates said Monday that he has resigned from his job in the Trump administration as the deputy assistant attorney general in the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division.
He said he is returning to the Huntington Beach city attorney's office as the chief assistant city attorney, effective Nov. 24.
Gates, a Republican, served in the federal job for about 10 months.
"I was flying back here [to Huntington Beach] once a month, and my wife would fly out there [to Washington, D.C.] once a month," he said. "A lot of saying goodbye to the kids, saying, 'I'll see you next month.' I was missing a lot of surf competitions, my son's varsity football games."
Gates, 50, and his wife, Kelly, are the parents of five children.
