There are regulations on when it should be flown at half-staff
(death if a president 30 days etc.). I'm not aware of regulations
about when it shouldn't.
From Jack's reference: (FWIW)
"When is it permitted to half-staff the U.S. flag?
Only the president of the United States or the governor of the state may
order the flag to be at half-staff to honor the death of a national or state
figure. Unfortunately, many city, business and organization leaders are
half-staffing the flag upon the death of an employee or member. Instead, it
is suggested to half-staff (if on a separate pole) the city, business or
organizational flag. The federal flag code does not prohibit this type of
half-staffing."
