UW-O Foundation Trial Delayed Again

The trial of two former UW-Oshkosh officials for
misconduct in office has been delayed once again. According to Randall
Schneider, Assistant Attorney General, all parties are making progress in
resolving the case, which was filed in April of 2018 against former Chancellor
Richard Wells and former Vice Chancellor Thomas Sonnleitner.  The case alleges that the two exceeded their
legal authority to facilitate real estate transactions involving the UW-Oshkosh
Foundation.
Both Wells and Sonnleitner, who plead not guilty, were due in court June 20 but
now are not expected back until Aug. 29. This is the second postponement of
scheduled hearings in the case.
