Now we are seeing why judges think they can get away with such things. <BR/><BR/>My gut tells me this goes all the way to the top...and that our entire judicial system needs a major overhaul. We cannot go any longer thinking its just.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-19485373108876439082007-11-20T23:09:00.000-06:002007-11-20T23:09:00.000-06:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6621691715090523319.post-9264816519498299402007-11-20T22:45:00.000-06:002007-11-20T22:45:00.000-06:00Doesn't this law apply in Wisconsin:(1) A judge sh...Doesn't this law apply in Wisconsin:<BR/><BR/>(1) A judge shall disqualify himself or herself in a proceeding in which the judge’s impartiality* might reasonably be questioned, including but not limited to instances where:...(c) the judge knows* that he or she, individually or as a fiduciary, or the judge’s spouse, parent or child wherever residing, or any other member of the judge’s family residing in the judge’s household*, has an economic interest* in the subject matter in controversy or in a party to the proceeding or has any other more than de minimis* interest that could be substantially affected by the proceeding"<BR/><BR/>How can we possible trust the Wi Supreme Court if Ziegler is a member after that?<BR/><BR/>Can't some concerned citizens of Wisconsin apply to the U.S. Supeme Court to force Ziegler off the bench if the WI Supreme Court doesn't take care of the problem? <BR/><BR/>I have no sympathy for Judge Ziegler. She shouldn't have done things that she is so ashamed of she can't even discuss herself. Why would you trust her with other people's important issues if she is so careless she puts herself in a position she can be blackmailed whether or not she actually was paid off? If other words, a party with no involvement at all with the bank could have blackmailed her to gain advantage in another matter if they knew she was sitting on cases involving the bank her family was financially involved with? Didn't I read that involvement was multi dimensional and involved real estate rentals as well as the payments for her husband's service on the board?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
