There is now a complaint over the group of former Wisconsin Supreme Court justices who are offering the state’s assembly speaker advice on impeachment.
The liberal-leaning group American Oversight filed a complaint With Dane County’s district attorney asking him to void any action that comes from the panel. American Oversight says Assembly Speaker Robin Vos is breaking the state’s open meetings rules by asking the former justices for their advice on how to possibly move forward with an impeachment against Justice Janet Protasiewicz. Vos last week said he was reaching out to former justices to get a sense of how the state could move forward with an impeachment proceeding. Vos has not said just which justices he has reached out to, American Oversight says Wisconsin’s open meeting laws require that he make that information public.
