A Discussion on the Direction of Wisconsin Supreme Court 2025

Practice with perspective

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has embarked on a new chapter. With a recently elected justice, two new chiefs, and shifting dynamics on the bench, questions are emerging about how the court’s decisions may evolve.

A Discussion on the Direction of the Wisconsin Supreme Court offers a timely perspective from experienced advocates who have appeared before the court on behalf of clients across the ideological spectrum.

Gavel gazing

You’ll begin with an administrative overview of the court’s operations, then examine how upcoming decisions could be shaped by the justices’ approaches to equal protection under the Wisconsin Constitution, separation of powers, and stare decisis. Additionally, you’ll hear an analysis of the court’s 1997 decision in Cook v. Cook and its continued influence on current and future rulings.
