BY THE COURT:
David R. Schanker
Clerk of Supreme Court
[1] Notice of the hearing appeared in the December 2008 Wisconsin Lawyer, the official publication of the State Bar of Wisconsin, 84 days prior to the hearing rather than the required maximum of 60 days, due to the State Bar's publication schedule. Notice of the hearing will also appear in the February 2009 Wisconsin Lawyer 22 days prior to the hearing rather than the required minimum of 30 days, due to the State Bar's publication schedule. Pursuant to its rule-making authority under Wis. Stat. § 751.12 and its Internal Operating Procedures, the court exercises its discretion to allow this unavoidable deviation from the requirements.
The petition is available on the Web site of the Wisconsin Supreme Court at http://wicourts.gov/supreme/docs/ 0824petition.pdf.
