What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, vacancies in public office may occur in a number of ways, including when the incumbent resigns, dies, or is removed from office, or, in the case of elected office, when the incumbent's term expires. However, as the Wisconsin Supreme Court held in State ex rel. Kaul v. Prehn , 2022 WI 50, expiration of an incumbent's term of office does not create a vacancy if the office is filled by appointment for a fixed term. Absent a vacancy or removal for cause, these incumbents may remain in office until their successors are appointed and qualified.
Under the bill, if such an incumbent remains in the public office after the expiration of the incumbent's term, any salary or other payments the incumbent receives for duties related to the public office must be withheld beginning 90 days after the expiration of the incumbents term. The bill specifies that this provision applies only to incumbents who were appointed by a person in the executive branch.
