In Wisconsin, eviction records are supposed to be removed from the state records after two years in situations where a case was dismissed and there is no monetary judgement in the court record. However, sometimes this does not happen automatically.

Landlords and financial lenders can search eviction records in approving renters or when approving mortgage applications, which can lead to bias. This is a huge barrier for people who did no wrong or had the case dismissed. Removing these records can increase the opportunities of finding new housing or in purchasing a new home.
