President Trump’s top federal prosecutor in Milwaukee will not have his temporary term extended by judges on the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, the court announced Tuesday.
Brad Schimel, interim U.S. attorney for the district, will see the clock on his appointment run out on March 17. A majority of the federal court’s judges declined to invoke its power to keep him in his post until the vacancy is permanently filled.
“The Court awaits the nomination and confirmation of a full-time United States Attorney by the President and United States Senate,” a notice posted to the court’s website says.
The court emphasized in its notice that it “intends no criticism or commentary” on Schimel’s performance or qualifications, or that of the DOJ lawyers in his office, by deciding not to extend his interim term.
