Wisconsin Supreme Court Chief Justice Accuses New Liberal Majority of Undermining Her Authority

  • Chief Justice Ziegler accuses liberal justices of staging a "coup" after they gained a 4-3 majority on the court.
  • Liberal justices fired the state court director, appointed an interim replacement, and created a committee to reduce Ziegler's powers.
  • Ziegler calls the actions illegal, refuses to work with the committee, and orders the interim director to not sign orders without her approval.
  • Liberal justices defend their actions as constitutional and necessary to counter Ziegler's obstructionism.
  • The tensions continue as Ziegler says the liberals have caused irreparable damage to the judiciary.
