MADISON, Wis. – Justice Rebecca Frank Dallet made the following statement today:
“The majority of justices on the Wisconsin Supreme Court voted today to advance a
number of transparency and accountability measures. First, we have made a series of
rules and operating procedures changes to make Court decision-making more inclusive,
timely, and responsive.
“Second, we are committed to making all orders more readily accessible on our website.
Third, we have voted to re-open our administrative conferences. And fourth, we will be
announcing the creation of a bipartisan task force to study the issue of recusal and to
present us with recommendations.
“This initial series of actions is intended to be a first step in making our court more
accessible and more accountable to the people of Wisconsin.”
