Life and career

Seidl was born in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin[1] and raised in the northern Wisconsin communities of Stanley and Medford.[2] His father, Peter Seidl, served as a circuit court judge in Taylor County from 1962 until 1980.[3] The younger Seidl graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire in 1968 and worked as a high school and college instructor until 1971, when he entered the University of Wisconsin Law School.[1] Seidl received his law degree in 1974 and entered private practice in Wausau.[1] Seidl worked as a general practice attorney for more than 40 years, handling civil, family, real estate, and probate matters.[2]

In 2015, Seidl contested a seat on District III of the Wisconsin Court of Appeals vacated by the retirement of Judge Michael W. Hoover. He faced Eau Claire County circuit judge Kristina Bourget, who was appointed to the bench by Governor Scott Walker in 2013.[3] Seidl defeated Bourget in the April general election[4] and assumed office in August.

gollark: It happens still, but they don't know why, and are unable to infer the presence of the antimeme from it.
gollark: This is not really right though. Instead of simulating some ridiculously complex alternate universe without the thing, the human could just be anomalously made to not infer anything from the weirdness caused by the antimeme/not perceive its changes.
gollark: Okay, never mind, I can kind of work it out?
gollark: I don't understand what you're saying here.
