Day 878 of Vos-Gableman GOP intraparty feud

 
Headline:  Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, 12/27/2024

When GOP judge shopping doesn't work out
The Waukesha-based District II Court of Appeals rejected Vos' efforts to reverse Dane County Circuit Court decisions ordering the state to pick up $143,211 in legal fees for one American Oversight case and $98,000 for a second one. The rulings make clear the costs will ultimately be paid by taxpayers. 
In a separate ruling, the Appeals Court dismissed a contempt order issued against the state Office of Special Counsel for violating a court order directing it to provide American Oversight with all the records it sought from the agency. Former state Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman, who oversaw the Office of Special Counsel, was also cleared of having to pay a $24,000 fine.
