Wisconsin state regulations stipulate that records revealing public actions for example court documents, arrest records, marriage licenses, vehicular violations and more are open and available to the public, largely as a result of the Wisconsin Open Records Law, which recognized its centennial anniversary in 2017. All relevant information about the numerous happenings of police officers, city courts, and local government are contained in these records, and generally are presumed public unless legally redacted. These laws provide the people of America, and Minocqua, the capability to research and understand their rights, the precedents that brought about those rights, and whenever those rights are infringed upon, which in turn creates a more free and open society for all.
