April 21, 2010 – Last year was a busy one for the Wisconsin Legislature and state agencies, as was obvious to anyone surfing the State Bar’s Web site, which has recently contained such headlines as …
State Bar CLE Books has tracked these and many more developments, incorporating them into its Wisconsin codebook series – now available in newly updated 2010 editions. Each codebook contains the essential statutes, regulations, and other materials for specific areas of law – all in easily managed, paperbound volumes that you can carry with you or keep at your desk.
The updated editions of the Wisconsin Criminal Code and Selected Traffic Statutes and the Wisconsin Traffic Law Codebook, for example, include some of the more notable legislative enactments of 2009: amendments to the Wisconsin Vehicle Code, increasing the penalties for OWIs and imposing new requirements for the installation of ignition interlock devices.
Also in 2009, the Wisconsin Legislature enacted the Wisconsin Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA), which codified the federal ICWA, applicable to certain child custody proceedings involving Indian children and juveniles. The 2010 edition of the Wisconsin Children’s Code and Juvenile Justice Code incorporates this development and others.
Other recent legislative highlights include those affecting the Wisconsin Rules of Evidence (a new domestic-partner privilege) and the Wisconsin Rules of Appellate Procedure (time limits for motions for reconsideration and petitions for review). These changes are incorporated in the Wisconsin Rules of Evidence: Pocket Edition and the Wisconsin Rules of Appellate Procedure, as well as in the Wisconsin Civil Litigation Handbook.
Other codebooks provide up-to-date coverage for such critical practice areas as business law, employment law, elder and disability law, family law, probate and estate planning, real estate law, and public utilities. For a full listing of all 14 codebook titles, and for specific pricing information for each title, see www.wisbar.org/books/codebooks.
The two pocket-sized codebooks, OWI and Rules of Evidence, are available to members for $22 per volume and nonmembers for $27.50, and the Wisconsin Rules of Appellate Procedure is available to members for $18 and to nonmembers for $22.50. The remaining volumes cost $50 for members and $62.50 for nonmembers (although the two-volume Business Law Code is $95 for members and $115 for nonmembers). Tax, shipping, and handling are extra.
