These tables are derived from information contained in 70 Wisconsin Supreme Court decisions filed between September 1, 1993, and August 31, 1994. The total of 70 decisions does not include rulings arising from such undertakings as (1) disciplinary proceedings against lawyers and (2) various motions and petitions. Nor does it include Hoskins v. United States Fire Insurance Company, in which a per curiam decision dismissed review as improvidently granted.
Occasionally, the Court’s records contain separate entries for individual cases that were ultimately consolidated and resolved by a single decision. If two or more cases were combined in this manner, the decision is counted only once for the purposes of the following tables.
The tables are available as a complete set and by individual topic according to the subsets listed below.
Four-to-Three Decisions
Decisions Arranged by Vote Split
Frequency of Justices in the Majority
Distribution of Opinion Authorship
Frequency of Agreement Between Pairs of Justices
Average Time Between Oral Argument and Opinions Authored by Each Justice
Number of Oral Arguments Presented by Individual Firms and Agencies
