On June 30, 2009, the Board of Governors of the State Bar of Wisconsin, acting pursuant to the recommendation of the Criminal Law Section and the Individual Rights and Responsibilities Section, petitioned this court for an order amending Chapter 72 of the Supreme Court Rules relating to expunction of circuit court records. An amended petition was filed on October 27, 2009. A public hearing was held on February 24, 2010. At its open administrative conference, the court discussed the matter and requested that court staff conduct further research. The court stated that another open administrative conference would be scheduled to discuss the information on certain public records of the circuit courts that is available on Wisconsin Circuit Court Access (WCCA).
IT IS ORDERED that on Monday, October 4, 2010, at 9:45
a.m., at its open administrative conference in the Supreme Court Room in the
State Capitol,
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that notice of the open administrative conference be given by a single publication of a copy of this order in the official state newspaper 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.[1]

BY THE COURT:
A. John Voelker
Acting Clerk of Supreme Court
[1] Notice of the administrative conference will appear in the September 2010 Wisconsin Lawyer, the official publication of the State Bar of Wisconsin, approximately 19 days prior to the conference rather than the required minimum of 30 days. 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.
