David Beckham and his soccer stadium partners have been cleared of accusations that they illegally lobbied Miami city officials for the project to replace the public Melreese golf course.

The Miami-Dade County Ethics Commission dismissed the complaint after finding no probable cause for wrongdoing by retired soccer star Beckham, brothers Jorge and Jose Mas, and Sprint executive chairman Marcelo Claure, who were accused of lobbying without properly registering with the city clerk.
