Published | Video Starts at 42:16

You can try to go to an oral argument if the court of appeals does them rarely, you can go to the Supreme Court arguments. They're on Wisconsin Eye as well. And I can walk in. It's a circuit court. You can walk in any circuit court unless it's a juvenile case where they're closing the doors because they're protecting the juvenile. You can go sit in on any case. You can sit in on your appraisal case. Okay. Criminal case. Anything else? Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. Thank you so much. (42:16–42:24)
