Monica Isham

Monica Isham is a Wisconsin judge who recently made headlines for threatening to boycott her courtroom in protest of the arrest of her colleague, Judge Hannah Dugan, by federal authorities. In an email to judges across the state, Isham expressed her intention to refuse to hold court unless there is clear guidance to protect judges and their staff from Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) actions, stating that she would not allow individuals to be removed from her courtroom without due process.
