Robin Vos ordered to sit for deposition as part of election probe records lawsuit [View all]

A Dane County judge on Tuesday ordered Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and his attorney to sit for depositions as part of a liberal watchdog group’s lawsuit seeking public records related to the ongoing GOP-ordered review of the 2020 election.

Circuit Judge Valerie Bailey-Rihn, who last week expressed confusion over how so few documents were produced from the first three months of former state Supreme Court justice Michael Gableman’s ongoing probe, denied a request by attorneys for Vos and his attorney, Steve Fawcett, seeking to block the depositions.

She ordered the two to meet with attorneys for American Oversight to provide additional details on how officials responded to the group’s multiple requests for public records — and answer questions about whether additional documents exist and have been withheld or were destroyed.
