Voet, whose smartphone disrupted a hearing in his own courtroom, has held himself in contempt and paid $25 for the infraction. On Friday afternoon, during a prosecutor's closing argument as part of a jury trial, Voet's new smartphone began to emit sounds requesting phone voice commands. Voet said he thinks he bumped the phone, and the embarrassment likely left his face red.

The goat was picked up at a local bar by the animal warden last weekend. Fairmont Hot Springs Resort general manager Steve Luebeck says staffers knew the goat was missing but didn't realize it had been stolen until they saw a story in The Montana Standard reporting that a goat had been taken into a Butte bar early Sunday. Shirley was returned to the resort's petting zoo.
