Overview
- The Wisconsin Office of Lawyer Regulation suspended Solis's law license effective immediately on Monday, Sept. 14, citing willful failure to cooperate with one or more investigations and offering no details about the probes.
- Deputy District Attorney Rosamaria Delgado has assumed day-to-day operations of the Kenosha County DA’s office and will manage or reassign Solis’s caseload while state officials and local leaders sort legal authority.
- Because Wisconsin law requires a district attorney to be a licensed attorney, the suspension raises immediate questions about who may bring or supervise prosecutions and how ongoing cases will proceed.
- The move follows a pattern of publicized problems during Solis’s tenure, including a February sanction for filing AI-assisted court documents with false citations and judges’ complaints this spring about missed deadlines and late evidence disclosures.
- Under state rules, the suspension can be lifted automatically if Solis cooperates with the OLR within 18 months, making the investigators’ next actions the key factor in whether he can regain his license and return to the office.
