Gov. Tony Evers took action Friday by signing various Assembly and Senate Bills, 15 in total.

Two of the Assembly Bills affect family court actions, with 722, now 2021 Wisconsin Act 204, allowing parties in family actions to agree to certain items prior to obtaining a judgement. Assembly Bill 723, now 2021 Wisconsin Act 205, will create a procedure for de novo review of court commissioner decisions in family actions.

Evers also signed Senate Bill 341, now 2021 Wisconsin Act 194, creating a five-year statute of limitations (formally a statute of repose) for actions against licensed real estate appraisers.
