Biography

A native of Waukesha, Wisconsin, Reilly is a graduate of the Wisconsin School of Business and the University of Wisconsin Law School.[1] Though his public position is officially a non-partisan one, Reilly is a Republican.[2] He is married with two children.[3]

Career

After working in the private sector for more than fifteen years, Reilly served as City Attorney of New Berlin, Wisconsin, from 1997 to 2002. He was elected to the Wisconsin Circuit Court in 2003 and re-elected in 2009.

In 2010, Judge Reilly chose to run for a seat on the Wisconsin Court of Appeals to replace retiring Judge Harry G. Snyder. In the 2010 election, Judge Reilly faced fellow Waukesha County Circuit Judge Linda Van De Water. Though both candidates were Republicans, the election was framed as a contest between the more academic Reilly and the more activist Van De Water.[2] Reilly prevailed in the election. He was selected as presiding judge of District II in 2015.

Judge Reilly is a former president of the Waukesha County Bar Association and a former member of the State Bar Board of Governors.[3]
