A federal judge upholds the conviction of former Wisconsin Circuit Court Judge Hannah Dugan after she was found guilty of obstructing immigration enforcement. U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman declines to overturn the obstruction conviction in a ruling that leaves the verdict in place. According to reporting, the case involves Dugan’s conduct when Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers appeared at a Wisconsin courtroom to detain a man who was the subject of immigration enforcement. Dugan had helped the man avoid being taken by the officers, which prosecutors argued constituted obstruction. Adelman’s order also addresses procedure: the judge does not reconsider the conviction under the current posture of the case and instead indicates that further proceedings, including sentencing steps, may need to follow. The decision is framed as part of the court’s management of Dugan’s sentencing timeline. Adelman had previously postponed Dugan’s sentencing on June 3 before issuing the latest ruling, and the federal judge’s decision preserves the conviction while the process moves toward the next scheduled stage.
