On June 12, 2009, the Milwaukee County Circuit Court issued a permanent injunction prohibiting the implementation and enforcement of the Paid Sick Leave Ordinance. The Court found that portions of the Ordinance are unconstitutional and that it was unlawfully enacted. The City successfully urged the Court to accept 9to5 National Association of Working Women as a full party to defend the Ordinance. According to a statement issued by City Attorney Langley “they are well-positioned to appeal the Circuit Court’s decision as the main proponents of the Ordinance”. The City of Milwaukee did not file a separate appeal of the ruling in recognition of the position taken by the Mayor and the President of the Common Council.
