Wisconsin Supreme Court Statistics, 1931-32

These tables are derived from information contained in 370 Wisconsin Supreme Court decisions that were turned up in a Nexis Uni search for decisions filed between September 1, 1931, and August 31, 1932. The total of 370 decisions does not include various orders pertaining to petitions, motions, and disciplinary matters involving lawyers and judges.

Cases are omitted if they were decided during the previous term but appeared in the search results because motions for reconsideration were not rejected until 1931-32. Such cases will be included in the tables for 1930-31.

When two or more cases were, in effect, consolidated—one was simply said to be ruled by the decision in the other—the cases are counted as only one: (1) Elbinger v. Capitol & Teutonia Co. (242 N.W. 568) and Baer v. Capitol & Teutonia Co. (242 N.W. 569); (2) Miswald v. State (239 N.W. 418), Braun v. State (239 N.W. 419), and Kanitz v. State (239 N.W. 420); (3) Bunce v.
