Town Hall Public Hearing: Judicial Recusal in Wisconsin

October 11, 2017 @ 6:30 pm - 8:00 pm

– Why more effective recusal rules are needed for judges at all levels who receive campaign contributions;

– How justice for all is threatened by lack of effective recusal rules;

– What Wisconsin needs to do to achieve effective recusal rules and what they should be;

– How citizens can help bring about strong recusal rules and equal access to justice.

Speakers: former State Supreme Court Justice Louis Butler, former
Milwaukee County Circuit Court Judge Michael Skwierawski, Marquette Law Professor Ed Fallone, and CC/WI Exec. Director Jay Heck.
