• Judge rules state law governing fine collection unconstitutional (gmtoday.com) — A Menomonee Falls resident successfully challenged a recent state budget change that let Milwaukee County keep all certain fine revenues instead of sharing them with Wisconsin's common school fund. A Waukesha County judge ruled the change unconstitutional and reverted the law, potentially restoring millions in school library funding statewide while leaving open whether Milwaukee must repay money already collected.
