Decision in collective bargaining lawsuit delayed

Posted:

MADISON  (WKOW) -- A Dane County judge delayed his decision to put on hold his ruling restoring Wisconsin's collective bargaining law until next week.

Judge Juan Colas gave both parties challenging the law until Tuesday, October 9 to file additional arguments. Colas added that the delay will keep him from acting on the state's request to put his original decision on hold.

Colas blames the delay on the state because it made new arguments in a previous round of filings.

The Madison teachers union and the Milwaukee city employees union, which brought the lawsuit, argue they should be allowed to respond to those arguments.

The judge on Friday agreed.
