Final Order: Petition 14-06 OLR Discretion in Initiating, Disposing of Grievances
This petition was filed by the Office of Lawyer Regulation (OLR) because the Wisconsin Supreme Court had expressed concern in recent cases that the OLR should exercise more discretion when allegations involve de minimus violations. The OLR contends, if adopted, the petition will permit the OLR to exercise discretion in accordance with the guidance offered in recent supreme court decisions and the recommendations of a consultation report.
Order Issued: April 21, 2016
Disposition: Effective July 1, 2016
