Oral arguments will be heard on October 1, 2021, in the Wisconsin Supreme Court. Friends of the Black River Forest will argue the right of Wisconsin citizens who use state parks to challenge DNR decisions that affect them. Friends of the Black River Forest filed a lawsuit against the DNR for its transference of Kohler Andrae State Park property to the Kohler Company for its golf course. (also referred to as "the land swap"). Our right has been affirmed by an appellate court who noted the right of citizens who use park resources to sue to protect them, "particularly in matters of the environment."
The Kohler Company and the State have asked the Supreme Court to review the court's decision.
The argument will be in person in Madison and can be viewed online on WisconsinEye.
