Wisconsin Supreme Court to begin hearing cases on abortion access, elections commission
In the two weeks after Wisconsin voters cast ballots in this November’s election, oral arguments will begin in lawsuits that affect two high-profile issues in the state.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court will hear arguments in a case about abortion access and in a case determining the status of the state’s highest election official.
Oral arguments in the Josh Kaul v. Joel Urmanski, which challenges a Civil War-era law previously interpreted to ban abortion in Wisconsin, will take place on Nov. 11.
And arguments in Wisconsin Elections Commission v. Devin LeMahieu, which challenges Meagan Wolfe’s status as administrator of the body that oversees elections in the battleground state, begin Nov. 18.
