Wisconsin Court System
The Wisconsin Court System is the judicial branch of the state of Wisconsin, responsible for interpreting and applying the law. It consists of several levels, including circuit courts, court of appeals, and the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Each level handles different types of cases, from civil and criminal matters to family law and appeals.
Circuit courts are the trial courts where most cases begin, while the court of appeals reviews decisions made by the circuit courts. The Wisconsin Supreme Court is the highest court in the state, overseeing significant legal issues and ensuring uniformity in the law across Wisconsin.
