Town of Ashwaubenon v. Public Service Commission

Wisconsin Supreme Court

Decided December 20, 1963PublishedCited by 33 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtGordon, J.

This case presents two main issues: (1) Problems concerning the review of an administrative order and (2) the interpretation of sec. 30.11, Stats., and its relation to the trust doctrine pertaining to navigable waters in this state. The appellants contend that the order of the commission is not reviewable by the courts and therefore ask that we reverse the circuit court’s denial of their motion to dismiss. The appellants also challenge the circuit court’s reversal of an order of the commission denying the town’s application for approval of a new bulkhead line on the west side of the Fox river.
