Fuller entered a pre-trial diversion program after being arrested on domestic violence charges after he allegedly hit his wife.
Citizens gathered on Saturday in Montgomery at the Federal Courthouse to call for Fuller's resignation.
Several leaders have already said Judge Fuller needs to step down including Governor Robert Bentley and several US Congressional leaders.
Bentley has stated that the judge has jeopardized the public's trust with his actions.
Alabamians rallied on Saturday saying the judge has no right serving on the bench.
Fuller was arrested in August at an Atlanta Hotel after his wife called 911 saying he was beating her.
Fuller was charged with domestic violence, but he avoided prosecution with a plea deal that will remove the arrest from his record.
Protestors say that's not enough and say he should lose his job. They believe he should be removed from his appointment as Judge, saying if he can't abide by the laws than he certainly can't rule on them.
"It's unfair for him to judge other people on the law and constitution of these United States and he's violated each code of conduct and canon laws that these United States were founded on," said Montgomery resident Karen Jones.

A number of fathers' rights in NJ some time ago held a successful demonstration at a courthouse.
Their slogam was "Get the bitch off the bench!"
What do you call a judge who beats his wife?
I like the sound of protests demanding bad judges resign.
