Not-so-natty neckwear raises judge's hackles

Justice may be blind, but Milwaukee County Circuit Judge William Sosnay's sense of courtroom fashion is not.

In the courtroom of the pompadoured judge long known as a fastidious dresser, a sentencing hearing in a misdemeanor case was delayed for three hours Tuesday after a veteran prosecutor turned up for court wearing an ascot.

A courthouse rule requires all lawyers to wear neckties, but prosecutor Warren Zier's occasional choice of creative cravats drew the judge's ire.

Sosnay's review found Zier's red ascot - which matched the handkerchief in the breast pocket of Zier's pinstriped gray suit - "borders on contemptuous," given the judge's prior warnings that he only cottons to neck- and bow-ties.

Sorry, lawyer dude and haberdasher dude, it that is not formal attire when worn as here:



(That's the lawyer, and that's his snappy red ascot neckwear.)
