MADISON, Wis. (AP) - A state Justice Department agent accused of harassing a process server has settled a grievance with the agency.
Special Agent Gilbert Magolan was suspended for 30 work days in March. Magolan appealed the violation.
Magolan on Tuesday agreed to drop his appeal. DOJ in return reduced his suspension to 30 calendar days and agreed to reimburse him for eight days of lost wages.
According to agency documents, a process server complained Magolan was harassing him after he tried to serve Magolan with a lawsuit over a dentist bill. Magolan improperly used a DOJ fax machine to send a complaint about the server to state licensing officials and improperly persuaded a police officer to find the server's address through the National Crime Information Center.
A spokeswoman for the Wisconsin Professional Employees Council, the union that represents DOJ agents, didn't immediately return messages.
