David T. Prosser Jr., a Wisconsin Supreme Court justice, was accused of ethics code violations for allegedly putting his hands around the neck of Justice Ann Walsh Bradley in June prior to the court issuing a ruling on a law limiting union bargaining rights for state workers.
A special prosecutor appointed by the State Judicial Commission filed a request yesterday with the state Supreme Court for sanctions against Prosser, saying the nine-member commission found probable cause to believe he willfully violated the judicial ethics code.
