Description
ANN WALSH BRADLEY, J. These cases are before the court on certification by the court of appeals, pursuant to Wis. Stat. § 809.61 (1993-94). Robert Auchinleck appeals two orders which dismissed his separate actions against the Town of LaGrange (Town) and other Town officials for alleged violations of Wisconsins open meetings and open records laws. See Wis. Stat. §§ 19.81-.98 and 19.31-.37. The circuit court dismissed the actions based on Auchinlecks failure to comply with the governmental notice provisions of Wis. Stat. § 893.80(1). We conclude that both the open meetings and open records laws are exempt from the notice provisions of § 893.80(1) because the policy of public access to governmental affairs which underlies those laws would otherwise be undermined. Accordingly, we reverse the circuit courts orders and remand for further proceedings.
