The contract of the Object.finalize() method is clear: only the Garbage Collector is supposed to call this method.
Making this method public is misleading, because it implies that any caller can use it.

public class MyClass {

  @Override
  public void finalize() {    // Non-Compliant
    /* ... */
  }
}
