Wisconsin statute 51.20 (13) (cv) 1 states: “If the court makes the disposition under par. (a) 3., 4., 4m., or 5. and the court determines, based on evidence presented on the issue of the subject individual's dangerousness, that there is a substantial probability that the individual may use a firearm to cause physical harm to himself or herself or endanger public safety, the court shall prohibit the individual from possessing a firearm, order the seizure of any firearm owned by the individual and inform the individual of the requirements and penalties under s. 941.29.”
S. 51.20 (13) (cv) 4 requires a court to report to the Department of Justice when such a determination is made. The Department may only use this information in determining whether or not the subject may legally possess a firearm. The court order should be reported to the Department of Justice using form DJ-LE-FH9.
If the court cancels the order pursuant to section 51.20 (13) (cv) 2, the cancellation of the order should be reported to the Department of Justice by using form DJ-LE-FH9.
