Judicial Recusal in Wisconsin | Equal Access to Justice

Former Wisconsin Supreme Court Justices Louis Butler and Janine Geske talk about the need for strong recusal rules for Wisconsin's judges. Currently, no rule has been established in Wisconsin requiring a member of our state judiciary to step aside (or “recuse” themselves) if they received a large campaign donation or benefited financially from a party in a case before their court. Members of our judiciary are allowed to decide for themselves when they should recuse from a case. This potential for even the appearance of bias in Wisconsin's courts corrodes the very essence of “justice for all.” For more information, visit www.commoncausewisconsin.org
