Case law and the Wisconsin Administrative Code

By: BEVERLY BUTULA//January 5, 2009//

Listen to this article

The Legislative Reference Bureau’s Administrative Code page has a feature that I believe is often overlooked. It is the “Citations to Codes in the Wisconsin Appellate Court Cases.” Organized by agency (back to 1956), the researcher looks for a specific code section (e.g. DFI-Bkg 73.01) and, if listed, will find Wisconsin Appellate cases that cite it.

What an easy way to quickly locate relevant case law. NOTE: The list has not been regularly maintained since the elimination of the Revisor’s of Statutes Bureau in 2007, but still offers a launching point when researching specific Admin Code sections.
