N. PATRICK CROOKS, J. ¶ 58. (dissenting). In my view, this case is controlled by a straightforward interpretation of the insurance policy language but has been complicated by arguments concerning the application of the independent concurrent cause rule. The majority opinion correctly begins with the policy language but takes a wrong turn by concluding that the circuit court's determination that Jesse Raddatz (Raddatz) is

PATIENCE DRAKE ROGGENSACK, J. ¶ 1.

CURLEY, EJ. ¶ 19. (dissenting). I respectfully dissent. Both the trial court and the Majority believe that Hemp was responsible for getting the information concerning his successful completion of probation to the trial court and that the trial court retained discretion to deny the expungement. I disagree with both propositions. Wisconsin Stat. § 973.015, the statute in question, is an outlier. It requires the trial court
