On October 31, 2014, the Committee of Chief Judges, a committee of the Director of State Courts Office, filed a petition asking the court to create Wis. Stat. § 801.18.  The proposed rule would require county-by-county transition from paper case files in the circuit courts to all electronic files, and mandate electronic filing by attorneys and high-volume small claims filers in circuit court proceedings.    

IT IS ORDERED that a public hearing on the petition shall be held in the Supreme Court Room in the State Capitol, Madison, Wisconsin, on Tuesday, March 17, 2015, at 2:00 p.m.    

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that the court's conference in the matter shall be held promptly following the public hearing.

IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that notice of the hearing be given by a publication of a copy of this order and of the petition in the official state newspaper once each week for three consecutive weeks, and in an official publication of the State Bar of Wisconsin not more than 60 days nor less than 30 days before the date of the hearing.

Dated at Madison, Wisconsin, this 2nd day of December, 2014.
