Milwaukee County Circuit Court - LOCAL RULES REVISION PROJECT

The Local Rules of the First Judicial District have been substantially revised. New rules governing the civil and criminal divisions and new rules generally applicable in all divisions became effective March 1, 2009.

New rules governing the family division have been proposed. The rules will not go into effect until the bar and the public have had a sufficient opportunity to offer comments and suggestions about them, and until they receive the final approval of the Chief Judge. You will find a link to the proposed rules below. The Family Division, the Chief Judge and the Chief Judge’s Executive Committee welcome your comments on these proposed rules.

Please direct your comments to Judge Richard Sankovitz, the chair of the Local Rules Revision Project Committee:

1. Revised Local Rules Governing the Civil and Criminal Divisions and Rules

Generally Applicable to All Divisions

2. Proposed Local Rules Governing the Family Division
