Under current law, under first-degree sexual assault of a child, whoever has
sexual contact with a person who is under 13 years of age is guilty of a Class B felony.
"Sexual contact" is defined in current law so that it includes "sexual intercourse."
For clarity, this bill specifies that whoever has sexual contact or sexual intercourse
with a person who is under 13 years of age is guilty of a Class B felony.
Under current law, if, before a trial, a court releases a person who is charged
with a felony or a misdemeanor without bail or upon the execution of an unsecured
appearance bond, the court may prohibit the person from possessing any dangerous
weapon as a condition of the release. If the person who is subject to this prohibition
has a license to carry a concealed weapon, the court must revoke the license and the
court must suspend the license, subject to restoration if the prohibition is removed.
This bill clarifies that the license must be suspended, not revoked, if the court
imposes such a condition.
This bill also renumbers subsections to eliminate gaps in numbering.

Committee of the Joint Legislative Council.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
Law Revision Committee prefatory note: This bill is a remedial legislation
proposal, requested by the Department of Justice and introduced by the Law Revision
Committee under s. 13.83 (1) (c) 4. and 5., stats. After careful consideration of the various
provisions of the bill, the Law Revision Committee has determined that this bill makes
minor substantive changes in the statutes, and that these changes are desirable as a
matter of public policy.
AB563,1 1Section 1. 175.60 (14) (a) of the statutes is amended to read:
AB563,2,42 175.60 (14) (a) The department shall revoke a license issued under this section
3if the department determines that sub. (3) (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), or (g) applies to the
4licensee.
Note: Deletes the requirement that the Department of Justice revoke a license to
carry a concealed weapon if the license holder is ordered not to possess a dangerous
weapon as a condition of release on a pending criminal charge. This provision is in conflict
with current law under which such a license must be suspended under these conditions

and the department must restore the license upon notice that the person is no longer
prohibited from possessing a dangerous weapon.
AB563,2 1Section 2. 939.74 (2) (c) of the statutes is amended to read:
AB563,3,52 939.74 (2) (c) A prosecution for violation of s. 948.02 (2), 948.025 (1) (b) (e),
3948.03 (2) (a), 948.05, 948.051, 948.06, 948.07 (1), (2), (3), or (4), 948.075, 948.08,
4948.085, or 948.095 shall be commenced before the victim reaches the age of 45 years
5or be barred, except as provided in sub. (2d).
Note: Removes the reference to an offense of engaging in repeated acts of sexual
assault of the same child from the statute of limitations under which a prosecution must
be commenced before the victim reaches age 45 years. This offense is also referenced in
the statute of limitations for offenses for which a prosecution may be commenced at any
time. This Section replaces the cross-reference with a cross-reference to another offense
of engaging in repeated acts of sexual assault of the same child which currently is not
specifically referenced and, therefore, is treated as felonies are in general. For felonies
that are not subject to another statute of limitations, prosecution must be commenced
within six years of the commission of the offense.
AB563,3 6Section 3. 948.02 (1) (e) of the statutes is amended to read:
AB563,3,87 948.02 (1) (e) Whoever has sexual contact or sexual intercourse with a person
8who has not attained the age of 13 years is guilty of a Class B felony.
Note: Adds having sexual intercourse to the offense prohibiting having sexual
contact with a person who has not attained the age of 13 years. Among other offenses
relating to sexual assault of a child, current law prohibits having sexual intercourse with
a person who has not attained the age of 12 years and prohibits having sexual contact
with a person who has not attained the age of 13 years.
