The judicial branch and its system of various courts may ap- pear very complex to the nonlawyer. It is well-known that the courts are required to try persons accused of violating criminal law and that conviction in the trial court may result in punishment by fine or imprisonment or both. The courts also decide civil matters between private citizens, ranging from landlord-tenant disputes to adjudication of corporate liability involving many mil- lions of dollars and months of costly litigation.

  • Monday Morning Review June 20, 2016 State Assembly Races
    Monday Morning Review June 20, 2016 State Assembly Races Coming Into Focus In Wisconsin, June 1st is the day that candidates running in the fall election are required to submit the required number of signatures from voters in their district so they can get on the ballot, first for the August Primary and then for the General Election on November 8, 2016. In Madison, all four campaign committees working to elect and reelect candidates host “meet the candidate” events and it is the most optimistic day of the year, with those in the majority arguing they are going to gain seats in November, and those in the minority touting the quality of their challenger candidates (predicting they will be measuring for curtains in their new and bigger offices on the morning of November 9 as they make plans to take back the majority in January 2017). In the state assembly, all 99 seats will be voted on in November. The GOP currently holds the majority in the lower house and will be defending 63 of the 99 seats this fall. One of the bigger surprises in the state assembly was that current State Representative Warren Petryk (R-Eleva) has no opponent in 2016, precisely because he is in a 50/50 district that always faces stiff competition. This is a big deal for the GOP because it is one less seat that they will have to keep an eye on. Why no opponent for Petryk? That is likely due to a combination of three things: 1) he had over $100,000 in the bank already to use for his reelection; 2) he works extremely hard during campaign time, and; 3) he is most likely one of the nicest people who currently serve in either house of the legislature.

It is the final authority on matters pertaining to the Wisconsin Constitution and the highest tribunal for all actions begun in the state court system, except those involving federal constitutional issues appealable to the U.S. Supreme Court. In addition, it has regulatory and administrative authority over all courts and the practice of law in the state. In this capacity, it establishes procedural rules and codes of conduct for the courts and for the practice of law, and it regulates and disciplines attorneys, judges, and justices. The supreme court consists of seven justices elected for ten-year terms. They are chosen in statewide elections on the nonpartisan April ballot and take office on the following August 1. The Wisconsin Constitution provides that only one justice can be elected in any single year. In the event of a vacancy, the governor may appoint a person to serve until an election can be held to fill the seat.

NASHOLD, JUDGE February 5, 2020 Clerk of Supreme Court Attn: Deputy Clerk-Rules [email protected] Re: Rule Petition 19-22 Dear Honorable Justices of the Supreme Court: I am writing to suggest a friendly amendment to Rule Petition 19-22 relating to judicial education requirements. Petition 19-22 filed by the Chief Judges' Subcommittee on Judicial Education seeks to clarify that supreme court commissioners and court of appeals staff attorneys are treated as judges for judicial education purposes. This clarification is necessary because in late 2017, the definition in SCR 32.001 was amended to exclude appellate judges. See In the Matter to Amend SCRs 32.001, 32.02 and 32.04, 2017 WI 109, 378 Wis. 2d xxix (Dec. 21, 2017). Traditionally, for judicial education purposes, supreme court commissioners and court of appeals staff attorneys were treated like appellate judges. The proposed amendment to the definition of “judge” is needed to provide for continuing judicial education for supreme court commissioners and court of appeals staff attorneys.
