The Wisconsin circuit courts are the state’s trial courts. They have original jurisdiction in all civil and criminal matters within the state. There are currently 241 circuit court judges in Wisconsin. The circuit courts are divided into branches with at least one branch in nearly every county. Polk County has two branches. Circuit court judges are elected to six-year terms in countywide, non-partisan elections that are held in April.
