A man accused of bringing guns to the Wisconsin state Capitol building and demanding to see Gov. Tony Evers can go free on a signature bond but can't come near the governor or his family until his case is resolved, a court commissioner ordered Thursday.
Joshua Pleasnick, 43, of Madison, made his initial court appearance Thursday morning on a misdemeanor charge of openly carrying a gun in a public building. Online court records show that Dane County Court Commissioner Scott McAndrew entered a not guilty plea on Pleasnick's behalf and set a signature bond for him. Under the terms of the bond he would have to pay $500 if he misses a court date or doesn't follow the conditions of his release.
