WI Stat § 968.50 (2016) What's This?

968.50 Report progress and return indictments. A grand jury may report progress and return indictments to the court from time to time during its session and until discharged.

History: 1977 c. 187 s. 95; Stats. 1977 s. 756.17; Sup. Ct. Order No. 96-08, 207 Wis. 2d xv (1997); Stats. 1997 s. 968.50.

A grand jury performs a judicial rather than a legislative function; therefore, a progress report unconnected to an indictment may not be made public. State ex rel. Caledonia v. Racine County Ct. 78 Wis. 2d 429, 254 N.W.2d 317 (1977).
