"Supreme Court justice as she’s about to hear her first case.

Wisconsin Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R, told the Associated Press this week that Republicans are looking into the precedence of impeaching Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Janet Protasiewicz before the court hears a challenge to the state’s district maps.

“I want to do legal research and see if this is unprecedented,” Vos told AP. “I’m not saying it’s definitely happening. But we have to take a look at it.”

Republicans currently carry a majority in the state Assembly and Senate, but challengers to the state electoral map argue it’s gerrymandered in Republicans’ favor.

To impeach Protasiewicz, there would need to be a majority vote in the Assembly followed by a two thirds Senate majority to convict.

Republicans have accused the judge, who was elected in April and flipped the court to a liberal majority, of already expressing her opposition to the districting maps during her campaign.

“Let’s be clear here,” she said in January. “The maps are rigged here, bottom line.”"
