“Prosser converts campaign account to legal defense fund”

Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: “State Supreme Court Justice David Prosser has re-christened his campaign finance account as a defense fund, which he said he is considering using to fight allegations that he violated judicial ethics rules by putting his hands on the neck of a fellow justice last year. The Government Accountability Board, which oversees the state’s ethics and elections law, approved Prosser’s plans earlier this year, the agency confirmed Monday. But others – including the former top lawyer for the accountability board – questioned its views on how the fund could be used.”
