CBS 58 WISCONSIN (CBS 58) -- Brad Schimel will keep leading the U.S. Attorney's Office in Wisconsin's Eastern District under a new title.
He's now the "First Assistant U.S. Attorney" appointed by Attorney General Pam Bondi.
A role that's typically second-in-command but for now, he'll remain in charge until a new U.S. Attorney is named.
This comes just days after his interim role expired.
