IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE WESTERN DISTRICT OF WISCONSIN
In Re: Assignment of Criminal Cases ADMINISTRATIVE
to Magistrate Judges ORDER 446
The assignment of criminal cases to magistrate judges shall be modified as follows:
Prior to this order and upon her appointment, Magistrate Judge Anita M. Boor
maintained blanket recusal from all criminal cases initiated during her tenure with the United
States Attorney’s Office. Such cases were assigned to Magistrate Judge Stephen L. Crocker
during his recall status.
With Magistrate Judge Crocker’s recall status ending April 30, 2025, and given that
more than twelve months have elapsed since Magistrate Anita M. Boor’s service with the
United States Attorney’s office ended, the court hereby orders:
1. Magistrate Judge Anita M. Boor shall be assigned to all criminal cases, effective
immediately, without regard to the date of case initiation at the United States Attorney’s
Office.
2. Magistrate Judge Anita M. Boor shall exercise discretionary recusal in
accordance with The Code of Conduct for United States Judges, Canon 3(C).
3. The United States Attorney’s Office shall revise its criminal cover sheets to
reflect this change.
Entered April 4, 2025.
