    Wisconsin Supreme Court Notice

    Final Orders 19-06, 19-07, 19-08, 19-09, 19-10, 19-11, 19-12: Amending Supreme Court Rules Pertaining to Attorney Disciplinary Proceedings

    In 2016, the Wisconsin Supreme Court established the Office of Lawyer Regulation (OLR) Procedure Review Committee. It was charged with examining the OLR procedures and structure and reporting to this court recommendations intended to increase the efficiency, effectiveness, and fairness of the OLR process. On March 13, 2019, the committee filed nine administrative rule petitions asking the court to amend certain Supreme Court Rules (SCR) in furtherance of the Committee's mission.

    Several of the petitions have since been resolved in previous court orders.

    At several closed administrative rules conferences in the spring of 2020, the court resolved certain outstanding questions regarding the various petitions.

    ORDER ISSUED: June 30, 2020

    DISPOSITION: Petitions granted, effective Jan. 1, 2021
