Glenn W. Neis of Reeseville was fined for speeding and Rirhard A.
Rusch of Water-town was fined for failing to report an acciuent. He declared he is in favor of an appellate court. "I think this is the single most important need for modernizing our judicial system," he remarked, adding that he felt the Wisconsin court system to be "very fine" because it is changed from time to time. He noted that 23 other states already have an intermediate appellate court. He said that he and other members of the Supreme Court are in agreement on an intermediate court, "In fact, all the trial judges in the state have voted in favor of that," he said.
He said he is not in favor of a system called the "Minnesota System" with an enlarged Supreme Court of seven to nine judges, with panels of three to five members. "We've all been objecting to this approach," he stated. Wilkie declared one of the principal points established by Watergate and other related proceedings is that the judicial branch is most important as the "balance wheel" in our American system of government. "Once again it is shown that an independent, experienced judiciary is one of the indispensable elements in our governmental structure," he said. He agreed to recommendations of the blue ribbon 'committee the- bipartisan committee appointed by the governor at the request of Chief Justice Hallows.
The recommendations were also studied and approved by a legislative committee. When asked if backlogs and restructuring could be handled by increasing the size of the courts and delegating certain cases to committee or certain groups of the court rather than have the entire court decide on the issue presented, he said the proposal is in opposition to the blue ribbon committee recommendations and himself opposes it. "Any case that comes to us, the Supreme Court, is entitled to be heard by the full court, not just a panel of three. I think the greatness of our court and its deliberations over the years is borne out by the fact that every decision is made by a seven-man bench," Wilkie stated "I do not think this is a good idea" and "unsound" were his comments on a proposal that cases being appealed to the Supreme Court be separated into two areas, one dealing with civil cases and the other with criminal cases. He said there are only four states where there is special treatment for civil cases.
Dodge County Circuit Judge Henry G. Gergen said trial judges are conditioned to the reality of life. The Supreme Court has set up a judicial college which all trial judges must attend. Here problems are "pulled apart, considered and put together," Gergen said. Wilkie pointed out that 85 per cent of the Supreme Court workload concerns matters sent up to them for legal decisions.
A comparison was made that the State Supreme Court last year decided on 355 cases by written opinion compared to about 180 by the Federal Supreme Court. "We have a significant heavier work load. We are obliged to hear all cases," he said. There are two judicial systems In Wisconsin, the state and the federal. Taking part In the panel discussion with Wilkie were Gergen, City Atty.
