    Final Order 23-02: Appointment of Referees in Consensual License Revocation Cases

    Wisconsin Supreme Court Notice

    Final Order 23-02: Appointment of Referees in Consensual License Revocation Cases

    The Wisconsin Supreme Court, on its own motion, has determined that it is appropriate to amend Supreme Court Rule 22.19, which governs petitions for consensual license revocation. The current rule is unclear as to whether a referee must be appointed when an attorney petitions for consensual license revocation in a pending disciplinary proceeding before the court may consider the petition. Because this is a ministerial, non-substantive amendment, a public hearing is not required.

    ORDER ISSUED: Feb. 22, 2023

    DISPOSITION: SCR 22.19(3) is amended effective the date of this order.
