Madison— A former aide to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker convicted of misconduct in office won't have her case heard before the state Supreme Court, after all.
With a 6-0 vote, the state's high court in March declined to hear the appeal of Kelly Rindfleisch, who served as deputy chief of staff to Walker when he was Milwaukee County executive.............................
In a letter to attorneys in the case, Gableman noted that Rindfleisch still had that other avenue of appeal. He didn't address the question of whether he also lacked support among his fellow state justices for his request.
"Her appeal is now pending before the United States Supreme Court where, among other things, she will have the benefit of review by the entire court," Gableman wrote of Rindfleisch. "I believe that is the better course of action at this time, and therefore withdraw my motion."
