Join us for a members-only virtual informational session following the release of the final ruling of this case and learn how this decision may impact the architectural industry specifically and legislative operations more broadly. 

Evers v. Marklein was accepted for original action by the Wisconsin Supreme Court in October 2023, bypassing Wisconsin’s circuit and appellate courts. This case broadly challenges the constitutional authority of legislative committees, like the Joint Committee for Review of Administrative Rules (JCRAR), to veto executive actions, including administrative rules.

AIA Wisconsin is monitoring this case as JCRAR has significant influence on the adoption of proposed building code changes that come before it for consideration. The final court decision, which is expected to be released no later than June 30,  will rule on the authority between the executive and legislative branches, potentially impacting the JCRAR future's role in determining building codes.

Attendance for this event is limited to AIA members. For more information on becoming a member, click here.
