A western Wisconsin judge is not stopping the challenge to Wisconsin’s wedding barn law lawsuit.
A judge in Trempealeau County last week refused to dismiss the lawsuit brought against the law that will force wedding barn owners to get liquor licenses or close. The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty is challenging the law, saying it violates the rights of wedding barn owners. Lawmakers approved a plan last year to end the practice of wedding barns allowing people to bring their own beer and liquor to weddings. The state’s Tavern League says wedding barns need liquor licenses just like every other place that serves alcohol in the state. Wedding barn owners say the new rules will force them out of business.
