Dallet Fails to Recuse Herself Despite Campaign Promises

Hmmmm

Milwaukee County Judge Rebecca Dallet has presided over at least one case involving attorneys from her husband’s law firm despite a self-imposed rule not to do so that she has touted during her campaign for Supreme Court.

Dallet this week also recused herself from three recent cases on her docket involving attorneys from the Husch Blackwell law firm after being asked about them by the Wisconsin State Journal. In the last seven years, Dallet has been assigned to six cases involving attorneys from the firm that were resolved with little or no action, or were transferred to Dallet after a decision in the case had been entered by another judge.

Wisconsin’s Code of Judicial Conduct does not preclude Dallet from presiding over cases involving her husband’s law firm, but Dallet has repeatedly said on the campaign trail she made a point not to do so to ensure the public’s trust in the court.

    Its great to see that our Northern Troll supports her agenda and her lies for the highest court in the state.  More reinforcement that Average Joe has issues with critical thinking.

    So it was OK for Gableman and Prosser to do it, but not Dallet?  Good to know your old double standard is still in play.

    What do previous candidates have to do with you supporting the behavior from a new candidate.  Good to know that you have no standards.

  4. Le Roi du Nord

    Nothing.  I was pointing out your double standards.  But everybody was probably aware of them already.

    Looks like your self-awareness was lost in three 500-year floods in a year.

    Well that’s a cute way of wriggling out of supporting a lying dirty candidate for highest court in the state.

    I’m sure the troll will disappear for a few days.

    Sorry, little fella, I’m still here.

    “But Screnock also said he would not commit to recusing himself from cases involving Gov. Scott Walker’s 2011 law curtailing collective bargaining, known as Act 10, which he defended in six cases as an attorney at Michael Best & Friedrich.”

    Screnock is not the topic of the article.

    Stay on topic, oberschütze.

    So, you’re taking him to task for being….  honest?  LOL
