  • State of the Judiciary Address 2018
    STATE OF THE JUDICIARY ADDRESS 2018 JUDICIAL EXCELLENCE Chief Justice Patience Drake Roggensack Wisconsin Supreme Court P.O. Box 1688 Madison, WI 53701 (608) 266-1888 Annual Meeting of the Wisconsin Judicial Conference October 31, 2018 Lake Geneva, Wisconsin JUDICIAL EXCELLENCE 2018 Judicial Conference COLOR GUARD POSTING OF COLORS Pledge of Allegiance –Sheriff Kurt Picknell Captain Dave Gerber (in charge of Color Guard) Welcome to the 2018 Judicial Conference. During the Judicial Conference, we will focus on judicial excellence, which is promoted by the judges and administrative staff who comprise our court system. We have made significant strides this year in moving our courts forward to meeting the many challenges we face in serving the public. Jean Bousquet expressed the concept of judicial excellence to which we aspire when she said, "The Wisconsin Court System protects individuals’ rights, privileges and liberties, maintains the rule of law, and provides a forum for the resolution of disputes that is fair, accessible, independent and effective." Through my remarks, and throughout the Judicial Conference, we will talk about judicial excellence, achieving it and continuing to maintain it in our ever-changing world. However, before we begin that conversation, this morning we continue a long tradition of recognizing those judges who have passed since the last Judicial Conference. Accordingly, we honor and remember: Justice William Callow Judge James Carlson, Walworth County Judge Dennis Conway, Wood County Judge Allan Deehr, Sheboygan and Manitowoc Counties Judge Richard Greenwood, Brown County Judge Patrick Madden, Milwaukee County Judge Hugh Nelson, Calumet County Judge Timothy Vocke, Vilas County 1 Although those judges who are no longer with us leave an emptiness, we are gladdened by each new judge who has joined our judicial team and by those who have accepted new judicial responsibilities.

  • Congress of the United States Washington, DC 20515
    Congress of the United States Washington, DC 20515 June 14, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House H-232, The Capitol Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Madam Speaker: We write today to urge you to fully reopen the House of Representatives. The positive impact of increasing vaccination rates and decreasing cases of COVID-19 are clear to see. Businesses are open, sporting venues and cultural institutions have welcomed back fans and visitors, and restrictions have been lifted. On June 11, Washington D.C. fully reopened and lifted the restrictions put in place to stop the spread of COVID-19. Unfortunately, the United States Capitol and the People’s House have failed to do the same. The Capitol remains closed to the American people and the House continues to maintain policies that run contrary to science of COVID-19. It is time for you to reopen the House and get back to serving the American people. Weekly case numbers in the United States have reached their lowest point since March of 2020 at the very start of the pandemic, and every day hundreds of thousands of Americans are being vaccinated. This also holds true for the Washington D.C. metropolitan area and the Capitol Hill community specifically. Over the last two weeks cases are down 36% in Washington D.C. and over 40% in both Virginia and Maryland. On Capitol Hill, no congressional staffer is known to have tested positive in weeks and no Member of Congress is known to have tested positive in months. This can no doubt be attributed to the institution’s steady access to vaccinations.

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.

It’s much harder to look into the future and have the same clarity. The Republican Party of Wisconsin is at a crossroads – we’ve reached an intersection where we have to take what we learned in the 2018 cycle and use that to chart our path forward. We have to take our 20/20 hindsight and turn it into a vision for 2020. As Republicans, we often look to business as a Congressional district Party leaders held conference model for achieving effi ciency and quality while calls and meetings with county parties and activists. eliminating waste.

For more than nine years, the Petitioner in this case, Debra K. Sands, litigated a claim for un- just enrichment against her fiancé, John R. Menard, Jr., reported to be the richest man in Wisconsin and a major contributor to organizations supporting the candidacy of multiple Wisconsin Supreme Court Justices. During those nine years, which never re- sulted in a trial, the sole issue contested by the parties was whether Sands’ claim was barred by a Wisconsin Supreme Court Rule of Professional Responsibility. On December 29, 2017, the Wisconsin Supreme Court, finding for Sands on the ethical issue, nevertheless ruled that Sands’ complaint failed to state a claim for unjust enrichment, an issue never raised, briefed, or previously argued.
