Wisconsin Court System

Within the Wisconsin judicial branch, there are two federal district courts, a state supreme court, a state court of appeals, and trial courts.

It’s interesting to note that the vast majority of cases will be held in front of a municipal or circuit Court, then depending on the outcome, the case can be elevated to higher courts.  In the end,  the Supreme Court is considered the highest authority.

 

Trial Courts:

Wisconsin Municipal Courts

Municipal courts are found in most municipalities, cities, and villages of Wisconsin. Most cases in municipal court involve issues with traffic, parking, and ordinances, including first-time DUI offenders. There are 232 municipal judges and 230 municipal courts in the state.   The largest municipal court and three full-time municipal justices are located in Milwaukee. The other full-time municipal court is located in Madison.

Wisconsin Circuit Courts

The state’s trial courts are the Wisconsin circuit courts. All civil and criminal jury trials, as well as cases involving minors, traffic violations, and probate, are subject to original jurisdiction by the state’s circuit courts. In Wisconsin, there are now 257 circuit court judges. Milwaukee County has the largest number of judges at 47 judges; 26 counties have only one judge each and smaller counties share a judge.
