Wisconsin Supreme Court to Hear Gov. Evers' Lawsuit

The Wisconsin Supreme Court agreed to hear Gov. Tony Evers' lawsuit against the Republican-controlled Legislature, with the liberal justices in agreement and the conservative justices in dissent. The case will bypass the typical process and court ordered oral arguments for April 17. The lawsuit challenges the Legislature's obstruction of government functions, particularly in relation to conservation programs, pay raises for university employees, and commercial building and ethics standards.
