Flags are supposed to fly at half-staff through the end of January out of respect for former President Jimmy Carter, who died on Dec. 29. A large flag on Trump’s property in Palm Beach was initially lowered to half-staff according to protocol but has since been raised in the days after Carter was buried Thursday in his hometown of Plains, Georgia.

Though federal flag code dictates a 30-day mourning period after the death of a former president, not everyone is complying. Here's what we know.

DALLAS - Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has directed that American flags on state property be flown at full staff to mark President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration next week, bypassing the national mourning period for former President Jimmy Carter. The move has sparked both praise and criticism on social media.

Flags over the State Capitol and all state buildings will be flown at full-staff on Inauguration Day before returning to half-staff to continue to mourn Jimmy Carter's death.

The president-elect had expressed concern that Democrats seemed happy to see the flag lowered during the inauguration ceremony despite the tradition of lowering flags after a president's death.
