Appeal to Circuit Court

If you are found guilty in the Village of Greendale Municipal Court, you can appeal that decision to Milwaukee County Circuit Court. You must file a notice of appeal and pay the filing fee within 20 days of the municipal court decision.

You can request that the circuit court take your appeal in one of three ways.
  • You can request that the circuit court review the record of the municipal court trial and make a decision based on that review.
  • You can request a new trial before the circuit court judge.
  • You can request a trial by jury in circuit court, unless you are convicted of OWI/PAC/RCS and did not choose a jury trial earlier.
The appeal may be obtained from the Village of Greendale Municipal Court. Call the court clerk at (414) 423-2127 or write to Village of Greendale Municipal Court, 5911 West Grange Ave., Greendale, WI 53129.

Once an appeal is filed in circuit court, the municipal court judgment and sentence are stayed, or stopped. No action is taken to enforce the judgment and sentence pending the appeal.
