MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A Wisconsin court commissioner has resigned after asking to see an immigration arrest warrant, highlighting tensions between judges and the Trump administration over immigration policies. Peter Navis stepped down last month. He had been a Walworth County court commissioner. The incident occurred on July 15. A court transcript obtained by The Associated Press Thursday showed that Navis objected to sheriff's deputies detaining a man without a valid federal warrant.
This follows a similar case involving Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan, who faces charges for obstructing federal officers. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel first reported on Navis' incident.
